Hi Bil,

I just did a search at http://www.uspto.gov and couldn't find any patent for the MG34 by a Richard Freeman Jr. Do you know the patent number?

Like Bil said did anyone ever build a semi auto from this plan that worked? Any feed back on this?

Well here it is 2019, ok in a few hours that is. But the question still stands. Anyone tried this?
In another thread a pdf is shown on the Freeman patent. For those interested in another way to may the MG34 into a semi.

Well it's Nov, 2024 and the question is still the same

"Like Bil said did anyone ever build a semi auto from this plan that worked? Any feed back on this?"

Anyone, as it seems we might need another method of making a semi auto other than the TNW method.
