Hello,
I need some help.
Building 3D model and animation for MG3 (MG42)
everything clear with animations, but can't find photos of the grip frame in the place with safety button.
Can't understand how safety button works with its plunger
Here is the model I have
P.S. I already have 3D model of MG34, but it has another safety.

I know that,
but what notch works for safety button plunger and how does it seat in the grip frame ?

I make FA model, If you can make some pics, it would be good, I will be able to share animations with you when I'll finish. ( I will create fire animation)
Please, make pics in 2 position Safety on and safety off. Interesting how safety plunger works with the frame.
On some grips I can see the square hole for the insert under the safety button.
On some there is no such hole.
What grips it is better to make for MG 3 model?

But do the notches in your grips are only in the inner part of the grips or they come through the whole grip like on left part of the photo with grips ?
Btw here is the link to video https://youtu.be/gMncKOnES7s
And if you like it I can give you an access to a program where you will be able to disassemble the model in 3D and check animations in Operation mode.
Those grip slots are found on Yugo grips,German both wwii and postwar dont have it though it is refrenced about in a old german manual issued at the end of the war then when the mg3 came out it was back the to original style..
