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.

K in a circle is an Israeli mark. The price is good.

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! :D

Where did you get plans for a transit chest? I need another project.
