Right side Feed

Post by kineticmule »

What's a complete right side feed top cover with feed tray worth in good condition? Anyone got a general idea?
Thanks

If I remember right the only difference is the long lever that actuates the belt pawls. I think you need a different feed tray also. Zwillingsockel will probably chime in soon. He was selling a lever for $200 to $250 if I remember corectly. He is the man to ask about the 34.

That is correct. The top covers themselves are universal. In order to change the MG34 to right hand feed, the arm and feed tray are changed and the other parts (pawls, ect) are reversed. The right hand feed tray does not have the ears for attaching the assault drum. Here is a not so great picture with the left hand feed on the left and right hand on the right
