WWII German MG42 Light machine gun.

Deactivated WWII German MG42. It was undoubtedly one of the best machine guns of the Second World War. So good was the design that MG-42 is still in production in modified forms in many countries. The MG42 had the fastest rate of fire of any weapon, at 1200 rounds per minute (up to 1800 in some versions). At this rate it becomes impossible for the human ear to discern the sound of individual rounds being fired, and thus when in use the gun makes a sound described as "ripping cloth". It was nicknamed by American GI's as Hitler's Buzzsaw.

A genuine WWII MG42 not a post war manufatured example as found elsewhere. Deactivated with a working action can be stripped and dry fired. Crisp Nazi WaA stamped in several places this really is a great looking display piece in excellent condition. Comes with its often missing rear sight.
