MG34s

Below are a few pics of a hobby WAY out of control. The gun in the foreground is a TNW semi. The gun in the background is a dummy gun built on a Phil. Ord. receiver. The neat thing about the dummy is the fact that it is an ALL matching example, with fabulous blueing. The first pic is of a few accessories, and a cut receiver and parts kit. The rcvr is held together with pins and rubber bands currently, awaiting my final decision on what to do with it. Hope you enjoy the pics

Very nice collection.You realize once you get this far,there is no stopping,don't you?

Do the TNWs come with the carry handle?There is a link to one for sale,and it has the same handle.Looks good with it. ---bil

Very nice, but I say "pish-posh" to being out of control

Bil, I think the handles are post war which matches the gun.

Very tempting.......

You know that if you have a split sling, you dont need a handle.

And if you have 1 mg34,you don't need any more! Whats your point?

I dont think anyone can stop once you get started with these.Nice collection-keep adding. ---bil

The handle I actually got with a parts kit. It currently resides on the dummy gun. Yes, the one with the sling!

BUT, the sling is nice for humping it thru the bush, the handle, on the other hand, is really handy to moving the gun in the garage! I just dont know what i want to do with the parts kit yet though. I would love for a buddy to get his license, and return it to FA.......you know, so we can "experiment" with it. I would also like the challenge of building a semi shooter from the demilled rcvr. That project is not quite as urgent as it once was since getting the TNW.
The dummy gun though is just too pretty to do anyting else with but admire. I have handled many of these kits and guns, and i have only ever held one other that was all matching.
