Re: LAFETTE OPTIC MOUNT ASSY-ALL PARTS

I have purchased two of these sight block assemblies for my lafettes. They are spot on and works of art. I got the MG34 lafettes fsu 1940 and fsu 1941 from Bob Landies about 10 years ago and both were missing the sight blocks. These fit perfectly and come with every part you need to install. The cam...

kls

"kls" is Steyer managed plant in Poland. They did bolts and trunnions for bnz guns. If I am not mistaked, Steyer took over the old Radom plant in Poland and kept producing the Radom pistols as well. kls is a good code for a bnz gun.

New rivets

Is anyone selling new rivets to replace the ones ground off by IO? The trunnion is te heart of the locking system for 42's and a tightly riveted trunnion is a must. I made a few for my guns, but we are doing another batch, and if someone has already done the work...I'd just buy them.

How tight?

From my firing of SA MG34's and MG42's I see no reason to over tighten the flash hider. Hand tighten, and the back it off to the last available notch. The barrel bearing is what keeps the barrel in the receiver, the flash hider just holds in the booster. The entire barrel bearing, booster, flash hid...
