This is the same MG wich i used in my Armytime in the 1990´s!

@TheHighlandPiper What do you have to say about it?

[TheHighlandPiper]

@TaZ101SAGA A bit heavy for long distance marches but great for hold down a lot of enemies! But i think at these times now we got better weapons were made me proud to shoot at the army time with the same MG like my GrandFather long time ago at Stalingrad!

@theflyff I know a few, but they all like airsoft and not the real deal, haha. I'll get some vids up of the K98, it was dispatched today actually, got a 1939 bayonet coming with it too.

[TaZ101SAGA]

@theflyff Hello Sebastian. You are correct sir.

Just watched this again, well done Jerry! Good presentation. My only advice would be to grab a tripod if your camera will take one. Other than that, excellent work!

[TaZ101SAGA]

@something01992 I used it in the other parts :)

You know mg42 copy because simple design the German use today call mg 3

[TaZ101SAGA]

@tigertank900 I know, I mentioned this in part 3. I know pretty much everything you've told me in the last three comments, it's all mentioned in part 3.

[TaZ101SAGA]

[tigertank900]

[TaZ101SAGA]

@tigertank900 Yes, I mentioned that in part 3.

[JimPanse625]

Das ist Deutsche Qualität =) do you understand

[TaZ101SAGA]

@JimPanse625 That is German quality?

[gungeekgary]

Perhaps the most stunning thing about the mg42 is the way it sounds, like a buzzsaw (hence the designation Hitler's buzzsaw). Just the sound was enough to strike terror into the allied troops.

[TaZ101SAGA]

@gungeekgary The U.S made a mistake in their training films 'Their bark is worse than their bite', it was primarily a moral boosting thing in an attempt to reduce the fear of Allied recruits that may face the weapon in battle. However, that phrase was far from the truth as we all know.

[gungeekgary]

@TaZ101SAGA Who's to say it isn't both terrifying sounding and powerful? Amazing weapon.

[TaZ101SAGA]

@gungeekgary Yes Sir, it sure is!
