MG34 Lafettes for sale Heads up

Post by m4a1sof »

I just stumbled across this guy on eBay, his seller name is parrotjabber. The market is flooded with MG42 tripods but it's a been a long time since I've even seen an MG34 Lafette for sale. This guy seems to have cornered the market on them, going back through his feedback he's had at least six for sale at one time or another in the past and continues to put them up one at a time. He's got a 1939 dated one up right now. He wants top dollar but I guess there not making any more of them and like I said it's been a long time since I've even seen one for sale. Anyway it's too rich for my blood but if you've got a ton a money burning a hole in your pocket and have been looking for a MG34 Lafette this looks like the official MG34 Lafette seller guy. If nothing else he has a ton of photos in the ads you could use for reference.

That first link isn't for $3500, it is for 3500 British POUNDS... that's $4400 US dollars.

At those prices everyone should have a couple. Glad I bought mine a few years ago.
