I have a big interest in historical military weapons, from swords, armour and catapults, to more recently WWII German weapons and WWII reenactment. Here I can share some of the more recent videos with everyone! I am totally against racism, socialism, communism, and fascism, so if you equate a German WWII uniform with these ideas and can't understand people who simply like military history, you're off track. I'm a huge supporter of the American tradition of military strength guided by good conscience and a desire to make the world a better place by opposing tyranny and evil.
About Me:
 
I'm a nuclear inspector, with a lifelong interest in military weapons and history. I have been cargo ship engineering officer for 8 years, a sword and armour smith, catapult engineer, and most recently a WWII firearms collector and WWII reenactor. I am a Roman Catholic. So all you Aryan Nations types can go petition elsewhere for your cult of senseless hate.

Everyone asks me where I get such wonderful and expensive WWII weapons. If you work VERY hard and save lots of money, have a clean criminal record, and have even more patience to deal with the necessary government paperwork, then you can own such weapons. It can take a few years to save for even one machinegun. Most people would rather spend that sort of money on a car or house. They are hard to find, and usually sold by other collectors, they can be had if you look. A good place to start is gun forums on the internet. Guns are also sold on Gubroker.com. If you take the time to learn the laws where you live, you can figure out what you can own legally. Some machineguns do not require a license to own in the United States, but State laws often restrict what guns you can own. The ones that were registered before 1968, called Curios & Relics, do not require a license in most States, and are also the most expensive. A C&R beltfed machinegun usually goes for over $36,000. Yeah... wow... I paid $20,000 for my MG-42, and now it's worth about twice that.

By the way, I don't put ads in my videos because they are annoying and I don't need the money bad enough to be rude to video viewers with crappy ads.

I remember a video that showed the disassembly of the bolt and mentioned that if you swapped some parts around it slowed the ROF of the MG42. It had similar red and yellow cut screens thats why I am asking you. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

LCBourbon008: No, I do not. I don't own even a demilitarized panzerschreck. I know those who do own them. As far as shooting one goes, I do no believe there are any working rockets left for those anyhow.

Do you have a video of you shooting a Panzershrek

It is looking like all that hardware might come in handy soon. Wish I was your next door neighbor!
