The MG 42 (Maschinengewehr 42, or Machine Gun 42) is a 7.92mm general purpose machine gun developed in Nazi Germany and entered into service with the Wehrmacht in 1942. This is an excellent original example of the MG 42 (illustrated in image 1 is a period photograph of an MG 42 crew of the 1st SS Panzer Division in action at Kharkov March 1943). Our MG 42 has all original metal work, wood stock and ribbed pistol grip. It is complete with bi pod, flip up sights and leather sling. The frame is marked by the manufacturer 'swd' which is the Nazi German War time code for Berlin Lübecker Maschinenfabriken and is serial number ‘7650 which is on the metal and shoulder stock. The weapon is Waffenamt & has inspection marks on its frame. The bi pod is stamped ‘kur’ which is Steyr-Daimler Puch AG, Werk Graz, dated ‘43’ (1943) and Waffenamt. Deactivated to UK/EU specification in 2022 the gun cocks and dry fires and the breech cover lifts and closes as it should. Also included is an original partial steel link ammunition belt with a quantity of inert ammunition. The price for this sought after Nazi marked weapon includes deactivation certificate & UK delivery. Sn 23436:5
