Hello all from the UK,
I have a 1944 deactivated MG42 that I have recently been gifted. Unfortunately the bolt appears to be stuck on some kind of rail located on the bottom of the gun at the point where the spent cartridges would be ejected. I don't know if this is related but the safety button will not move either. I am worried that if I try to force it I might damage the gun. I have had a look on the forums but cannot see anything related to this problem, hopefully it is a relatively simple fix...
Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.
Luke
