MG42 receiver types vs MG53 receiver

Hello guys,

I´ve got some interesting info for you. There are 3 different MG42 receiver types and no one of them is similar to the MG53 receiver.

I did not mention, that the MG53 has a significant welding on the left side and the AA attachment is missing, because these details are easy to fake:-(

So I need your help and I want you to send me your MG42 data with detailed pis.

If you want the comparison as a pdf file with a higher resolution, send me an email!

But look at the pics and enjoy it!

Thanks and greetings from Austria

Can anyone identify this shell, it was found in an area used by the Americans dring WW2 for practice. Should the police be informed or is it just a lump of metal now?

Mbe ???????????

Hi guys,

I need some help here, and couldn't work out exactly where to put this so here goes.

I have come across this medal and am not sure exactly what it is? I think it is an MBE, it was, so the story goes (never listen to stories) given to an old nurse who served in WW1, but this was given to her 1939. Don't shoot me down in flames it's only what I have been told:confused:

Any idea if it worth anything, or if people collect these??

Thanks,

Grant

Re: WWII guns, Hitler guns

Hello. I've only been on this site once while I was looking for any pictures of guns that were suppose to have belonged to Hitler. On one of the threads a guy showed a picture of a engraved gold plated gun in the west point museum. I looked that picture up and come to find out a group called Edit International interviewed several people involved and the gun was worth $51 million to priceless, there was other items belonging to Hitler in the same collection.

Anyway I went looking again this week for any Hitler guns and there's an ad in the Amarillo globe news about an authenticated Hitler gun. There's a web site to view the gun and read the history, but I'm not sure I'm suppose to add that on here, look up the papers web site.

I was just wondering if anyone else can get me links to more of his guns and prices.
