MG-42 BRP Build

I decided show a step by step build of one of my BRP receiver. I have built a few of these and this is how I do them. I am not saying it is the only way, but it’s the way I do them and they all have worked without a flaw. I also don’t use rivets. I have used them my whole life. From using them on a large farm in the Midwest when I was going up to aircraft in the military to gas turbines in the power industry. Rivets are hard to do correctly. I have done millions of them. Even if you get them tight, sometimes they become loose. This is a flaw I am not happy with. I weld everything. When my MG42’s are done they have all the correct rivet heads in all the correct places, inside and out and it is quite easy to do. I will show every step for you first time builders. I will have this one completed in under a month. I measure everything in millimeters. All my tools are standard.
