Very nice

Nice hardware, while the guns are quite impressive (nice SBR ppsh41), at first I was so captivated by seeing green grass (we lose that for about 6 months in NY) , I nearly missed the 42, she is looking great

SBR? What's that? I believe the PPSH is a post sample, it's a buddies and unfortunately not mine.

I hear you kn the green grass department though. Here in Texas we lose it threw summer.

Hearing an MG42 at full speed is just awe-inspiring.

Can you imagine the utter TERROR of the unfortunate souls who were on the receiving end of that kind of action????????

Thanks for the video.

GeeDeeEmm

Yeah.. check out the sound on this video... a constant ROAR. Awesome.

It's a shame that our country almost adopted the MG42 during WW2.They made a copy of it but it wouldn't function because the engineers screwed up by not extending the receiver by 3/4" to allow for the longer case of the 30-06 bullet.I think our soldiers would have preferred the MG42 over the M60 if they ever had a chance to compare them.

You can embed video now. Just use the code at the bottom, ie share.

This site just keeps getting better and better! Thanks,Salt! ---bil

Gotta love the FA stuff

Thanks for allowing the embed option now.

Here's another pic from that day. My favorite.

I like DA's sound clip - something about the recordings looses the deep roar of the guns. I'll never forget the first time I fired a 30-06 , no ear protection - my ears rang for ten minutes and I unloaded the remaining clip and walked away.
