Little too rich for my blood (seems everything is headed that way), but MG34.com (Allegheny) has MG34 Lafettes right now if anyone is looking for one. Chris....

I already have one that I bought 4-5 yrs ago, paid 1100$ for it then and felt like I got a good deal. If you compare to ebay and other auction prices I think the price if fair, maybe a hair on the high end, but decent. You may want to confirm that these have original range plates and not postwar installed. That said if I needed one I'd buy at this price. Chris...

pads and plates look to be replaced. remember these are the left over parts lafettes from ohio ordnance's big rebuild of them in the early 2000's. expect problems.

Can we confirm that these came from Ohio Ordnance? Just curious as it seems that only a couple of folks here on the forum know the full skinny on that transaction... Chris...
