I read maschine-pistole, but the german was maschinen-pistole, or not?

i was thinking they are all deact, what a shame but what can we do as the damm goverments can not understand that this is a important history item and to deact them is a crime by it self

Hi Kanister,

Yes your are right.
The most opinions are that the italian translator was not gifted in german language.

Hi Klinger,

Yes it is a shame, but it is the french law : "sed lex dura lex"
In normandie a museum receive a FG 42 bran new, from an early german paratrooper, the gun was not deact, the museum conservator was penalized (45.000 €) and the gun must be deactived (+200€) .

Would any you know where a magazine for this firearm can be found?

A friend of mine has one, that is fully functional, minus the magazine. Any help that you can give me would be appreciated.

The magazines are the same of the Beretta MAB, so 10, 20 or 40 rds.
Every italian smg use the same.
Post war there are also 40 rds reduced to 30 for the LG57, and also 32 rds. for the M12.
