WTS: MG34 Lafette-Tripod.
NOTE for Moderators: Photos to follow tomorrow as my camera's batteries are now dead due to my other ads placed on our Board today.
I have for sale an MG34 Lafette-Tripod that was left-over ("extra") after selling my C&R MG34 last-year to another collector.
This is a complete/original unit....not something put together/incomplete sold by another vendor recently.
Details about this MG34 Lafette-Tripod are:
1: Lafette-Tripod dated 1940 with manufacturer code of "S" over "652" in Triangle stamped into top-rear of weapon-mounting-platform.
2: Elevating-Mecanism was manufactured by code "GNC" in 1939 (which is correct as elevating-mech. can be manufacture same year or a year earlier than the Tripod.).
3: Bolt-Box is the correct early model with the notch cut at the rear for "post-October-1941" use (IE: bolt assemblies with the longer Firing-Pin-Retainer-Tail.)......and "correct" for a 1940 dated Lafette-Tripod.
4: This tripod has the earlier aluminum-Optic-Mount....again, correct for a 1940 dated Lafette-Tripod.
5: Tripod is complete, and very serviceable (everything works and it looks good). The front "leg-pads" are not torn and very serviceable. This Tripod has been repainted.
Photos of this Tripod's condition to follow tomorrow.
Note: No Optics, no AA-Pole or AA-Head, No Carry-Straps come with this Tripod.
Priced at $2,395 plus shipping to your street-address.
Payment can be by Money-Order or Check.
