Fellas,

Im curios to know if anyone (highly doubt it but ill ask anyways) has a mg34 lafette for sale? I came close to getting one the other day but I was told that they sold it to someone in person after I already placed my bid on it (I flipped (Try a different word.) on them for that). So my question is does anyone have a 34 lafette they are willing to part with? And if so would it be straight $$$$ or would you take $$$$ and ammo (i got 3500-4000 rnds of 8mm as of right now)? Looking to hear back hopefully with some good news.

Regards

Rupp

I saw that and have already placed a bid on it, unfortunantly I know that it will go for alot more then what I can afford. So im hoping somone will take up on my offer for cash and ammo.

You can still find some deals on the 42 Lafette because it was made on into the 60's, many many more around. The 34 Lafaette was not made post war so expect to pay close to 3K for a complete example.
Onece in a while I see 34 Lafette top tables available. Maybe you can get one of them and change out the top end of a 42 Lafette.

It seems as if I have the worst luck obtaining items from WWII especially German. On the other note since the 42 lafettes are often found and available from $500-$1500 Im actually looking for a M53 now.
