Description:

This is an excellent original example of a World War II MG34 Machine Gun. Developed prior to World War II by Heinrich Vollmer of Mauser, the MG34 machine gun was a mainstay tool of German forces through the full duration of the war. A machined steel beast, the 34 was a very versatile weapon, suitable for vehicle use, support fire from a sturdy folding tripod, or in rapid tactical movement from a bipod or fired by the shoulder. While later models were more efficient, banking heavily on stamped components and simplified designs to speed production, the MG34 was never fully retired before World War II came to a close, with the 34's method of barrel removal (the receiver rotating to the right, allowing the barrel to be shifted straight back) making it especially suitable for use as a coaxial weapon in German tank turrets. This particular MG34 is fitted with the heavier, less ventilated barrel shroud typically used for coaxial guns, with the additions of a clamp-on front sight and bipod base, which aids function as a free-standing weapon. Folding blade front and ladder rear sights, with an adjustable flash hider at the muzzle, a folding bipod, ribbed grip panels, and a synthetic buttstock. The installed barrel housing is marked "dot/1941/9611/a" with matching numbers on multiple components. Included with the lot are two extra barrels (one with a welded plug in the breech), a barrel case, ammo can with Finnish Army "SA" stenciling, and lengths of non-disintegrating metal link belts.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, with 90% plus original blue finish, showing areas of plum and gray patina, bright edge wear and minor handling marks. Some light scratches and scuffs are present on the excellent grips and stock. Mechanically excellent. This is one of the finest MG34s we have ever offered! NOTE: This weapon is a National Firearms Act (NFA), fully transferable Class 3, which is registered with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, (BATFE) that is classified as a "Curios or Relic" as defined in 27 CFR, 478.11. These weapons are still subject to the provisions of 18 U.S.C. Chapter 44 and 27 CFR part 479.
