Any news on Vivas MG34 or AGMs MG42?

MG42Schutze · July 5th, 2009, 06:30

I'm wondering if anyone got any new info to post regarding the specs and release dates for Vivas MG34 and/or AGMs MG42? I'm more interested in the MG42 because I always liked that weapon more plus I saw from some unofficial source that the MG34's got a price tag of $700 while the MG42 is like less than half of that. Well any news would help, oh and I'm hoping for some specs for the MG42 if anyone got any, thanks tahtah!

Your best bet would be to contact a Chinese retailer.

We probably won't have it until a few weeks after it releases.

They just released the Sten (or it just recently showed up at WGC). Have you tried searching the internet for any news?

MG-42 looks so much more awesome when compared to an MG-34.

Wow thanks! I think it says on one of the Asian forum that the MG42 weighs 7KG? That's kind of light compare to the real steel isn't it by like... 1/2?

I would love to have an MG42. I hope the WWII guys get one. Personally i am still waiting on the G43. If they (any company really) make a full metal/wood one i will buy that in a heartbeat.

A real MG34 weighs somewhat over 12 kilos, unloaded. Like 80-90% of the weight is the barrel, it's extremely front-heavy.

Since the MG42 is a slightly lighter (uglier, retarded) descendant of the MG34 7kg is probably closer to around 3/4 the real weight. If it's not all in the barrel it would be a little easier to handle too.
