My turn to second M1 Tanker, I used the oven cleaner on a K98 stock with crappy results, it was rough on the wood, and discolored it......Chris....

Good question, the 1903 rifles that have been coming from the CMP (civillian marksmanship program) have been drenched with cosmoline. Lots of recommendations on the Parallax forum and gunboards.com for cosmo removal. Three suggesions based upon their experiences w/ 1903's soaked in cosmo: 1) Use pur...

I hope mine look as good, I got two from IMA, they're sitting in Colorado, I live in Alaska and won't see 'em until at least late April! I have two questions, and if some one would like you can PM with additional info..... 1) What is the total overall length of the receiver, I think this has been po...

Just wondering what the going rates are these days for the following? MG34 Lafette tripods? MG 34 single barrel carriers w/ slings? MG 34 double barrel carriers w/o slings? Does anyone have any "obscure" sources for these parts? Other than the obvious like IMA, Marstar, etc.... Chris. Are the IMA MG...

Try Marstar in Canada, they have some, also IMA (international military antiques) has some ammo cans and other stuff.....Chris.

Thanks for the link Tommy, everybody is providing me w/ tons of info, so I should have some great resources here before too long being a newbie. Tom R- Alaska is hit and miss, if you go to the gun shows you can strike gold by talking to everyone and networking, but the tables are usually pretty weak...

Oh yeah, awesome looking 34 with Lafette!!!!! Chris.....

So, I'm inundating the forums with tons of questions, but I've been buying MG34 stuff like a madman for the past week, my wife is going to KILL me!!!!!! Or at a minimum I'll be selling off some 1903's and maybe a P38 to finance all of this. Anyhou.....I am assuming that these would run around 1000$ ...

Looking for an extra Barrel, barrel carrier, possibly a lafette tripod, sustained fire kit, etc. I missed the boat on all this stuff when IMA had it in stock, now I'm playing catchup.....feel free to email me at cpchris3@yahoo.com.....Chris.... Looking to buy from private individuals or looking for ...

I'm very interested!!!! Getting all the pieces and accessories this week........hopefully my wife doesn't kill me, I want to see it completed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Chris....

Tom, do you know if the kits from Allegheny are decent or not? I have read the boards about their receivers on their old kits. Of course the kits they have now have no receiver included, but was wondering what the condition of all o fthe other parts were like....i.e. matching, lineouts, finish, etc....

Who has the best MG-34 kits currently available, I've seen them w/ Allegheny, Sportsman Guide, ans MGS....any others or input? Thanks, Chris.

Suppose I get a receiver welded up, but don't have any lucky or the technical ability (i.e. direct help) to get it going.....what would I need to do to build at least a BATF legal dummy gun out of it? Chris.

So, I'm sure as time goes on, and new receivers come out, the building fraternity will grow...but I'm just wondering how many of you have actually completed semi kits out of MG-34's and have them running smoothly? What works well for a fcg? THanks, Chris....

Wow! That is pretty cool! Where did you obtain the kit if you don't mind me asking? Not like I'd get lucky enough to find one though.... Chris.

Hello, I'm a newbie here, but figured I'd jump on getting an MG34 together before everything is gone! How easy/realistic is it to be able to reweld the MG34 receivers that IMA has? I may order one or two...I have a friend who is an expert welder who can do the reweld for me....should I take the plun...

How doable are these 3 cut receivers for a weldup? Should I order 1 or 2 from IMA? Thanks, Chris.....
I have a friend who is an expert welder who can reweld these for me.....
