Hey guys I found a place that is selling 8mm MG42 barrels for $90, which is a good deal nowadays. I ordered one and just received mine today and it is very nice. The barrel is BK marked and extension is K with a circle marked – is that Yugo? Bore looks almost new with strong rifling with no pitting at all. Bought as a spare for my WLA M53.
That and I ordered from them a WWII German stencil for my transport crate project (bad bird stencil) large is $15, small is $12. They appear to be made of sheet metal and appear to be laser cut.
The name of the place is Kamabee Keep. They have a full page ad in the July Shotgun news on page 87. Their email is kbee1@nep.net (no website). Phone # 570-434-8000.
BTW, they also are selling MG34 barrels for $80 (don’t know what they are like).
Just thought I'd pass this on in case anyone was looking for barrels.
Anyone need MG42 8mm barrels or crate stencils?

K in a circle is an Israeli mark. The price is good.
Re: Anyone need MG42 8mm barrels or crate stencils?
So K in a circle is Israeli..that's cool. Thanks for the info. I might just order another one now that i know how nice this one is. I would have got 2 to begin with but I didn't know what to expect at first.
BTW, here is pic of the stencil I mentioned. I'm going to use it on my MG42 transport case when I get in finished. I figure I'll tape this on and mist a coat of flat black on it. That will make things much easier. Now to find some old style German letter stencils.

How offensive. Guns dont kill people, Nazis do!
Where did you get plans for a transit chest? I need another project.
