Hello to all
My first proper post
I recently purchased a 1943 dfb manufacture
MG42.
I will over time have lots of questions to ask you all
But for now :
The feed tray is post war and so l decided to replace it.
One came up on eBay , cof manufacture which I bought and received today.
After installing, I found that when I try to shut the top cover the tray binds on the feed tray on the vertical edge of the topcover on the left hand side and won’t shut easily or without force. I’ve measured both trays and the cof is about a 1/16 of an inch bigger barrel end to butt end.
Is it normal for replacement parts to have to be “tuned “ to the gun?
Many thanks
Corston
