Re: heart attack

I'm about half way back to normal, but it's slow progress. I'm gaining endurance faster that I did with getting over throat cancer, but I'm not 30 years old anymore, so healing will take some time yet. I'd have preferred going to SOS, but I knew that it would run me into the ground, so I had to pas...

Re: Rheinmetall MG42/59 parts kit with Heavy 1200 g Bolt AND Heavy Buffer

I've got a couple of questions concerning the heavy bolts and buffers. Can the heavy bolt be used without a heavy buffer or will it tear things (buffer and bolt) apart? Also, are there MG3 heavy buffers? If so, do they look like the MG42/59 heavy buffer or more like the standard buffer? I have an MG...

Re: WTB: MG42 Buttstock

Thanks. I finally got everything put back together. Mines tight just like you mention. The gun I bought came with an M53 stock but no guts in it.

WTB: MG42 Buttstock

I'm looking for a complete MG42 buttstock. I've had some issues with the internals on mine, and figure a spare could come in handy. I will also consider a full M53 buttstock and buffer (i've read you need the buffer as the stock thread pitch is different) or MG3. Let me know what you have.

Thanks.

Re: Receiver Locking cams

I am also interested in this. I have a nice front receiver section I want to use. For some reason the cams were removed. Any solutions?
