hi guys, it's been a while. does anyone know if there was ever any legal issues with firing a mg42,1919,ect, from a lafette mount using the trigger system that is on the mount? I'm not talking about bump firing as I think that could and has been done but firing one shot at a time rapidly by depressing the firing lever.
there may be a thread on the forum here somewhere but I cant find it if there is.anyhow this is the first time I've had anything worth while to post about for a long time so hi to all who remember me

One pull -- one shot.. That's the story. Pull on trigger or handle. One.
One pull several shots - time to take things apart and go to gunsmith/home or whatever and fix asap.
Neat to fire off a belt that way. I was the loader for a friend when I saw that the first time. He really ripped off a belt.
