The box has been modified to accept the periscope attachment.

The guy making the ray guns has several Form 4 MG42's, 34's and aircraft guns. One of his MG42's is in the Myrvang book. He is also acknowledged in the Weaver book "Hitler's Garands."

There was a thread showing how to use the 4.5v batteries in the battery box for mgz sights, etc, in order to illuminate the reticle. I found the thread in but the photos are no long there. Can anyone post the photos again on how to do this?

Thanks

Another one you probably have 'cause I stole it from da interweb

Not exactly action

BRP sells their transit boxes for $295. Or just get Reidar to send you an original one

Ed S... You need more lafettes and MG's!

9,10. Yeah, tell me about it.

Hey Ed S, I really have a hard time understanding why you collect JUST the optics without first owning perhaps one gun and lafette to put them on. You don't collect toilet paper rolls, do ya ? I might have a few rare ones... :mrgreen: :lol: Don't be hatin'. :D http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v633...

I just have to settle for putting them on my MG34 stuff

There is another aspect to the "rarity" issue and that is the manufacturers code. If you are looking for any example or mgz or mgz40 sight, then the manufacturer does not matter so sights are easier to find. If you wind up like me and are looking for specific mgz40 codes, then the "rarity" factor in...

Another oddity is that mgz sights almost always have the transit cans while mgz40 sights are usually missing the cans. Go figure.

I saw two panzer mounts at the last Knob Creek and bought both of them: one was original for $350 and the other was a replica for $100. Someone I knew wanted the replica so I sold it to him for what I paid for it. The MG34 for sale with the armoured barrel jacket and ground kit was Ohio Ord.

I give up on trying to figure out how to post pictures

I have a set also and will try to post pics this weekend

Oh yes, it's an interesting field for collecting. Some years ago I have written a book about German rifle grenades and launchers for a museum, but it's sold out now. Maybe I can do an update one day. Here some pics of foreign launchers and grenades. Hey, I have a copy of that book: red cover and 15...

Since I am looking for a code ddx (and lww) it seems that every mgz40 sight I have seen lately that someone else finds/buys is a ddx


It is a nice looking scope. Good job!

Nice Panzerschreck! It's the long version, now you need the short one to have both. Is your trigger mechanism still in full working order? Michael The trigger was a little bent but I straightened it out and it seems to work, but this is the only one I have ever had my hands on so I am not 100 perce...

I got this several months ago and have tried to improve on it as I could. The inert round was painted some strange color of green so I painted it gray and used my lame skills at stenciling to add the "4322" numbering. I also found a shield as it did not have one when I got it. This shield was ground...

I got 4 messages on that but could not respond because I was not one of the "cool guy advanced users."
