Hello everybody, i am in search of more info on this MG 42. According to deactivation papers its manufactered by Mauser and has serial number 01. But on the gun i cannot find any marks to proof it was. Also almost all other stamps and codes are missing on the gun. It looks to me the bipod is post war MG3 or so and the buttstock looks like MG53 to me. But not sure, not an expert!
Barrel is coded dfb and the handle bpr so those look like their manufactered in ww2. The receiver only has 01 marked on it.
Could anyone please shine a light on what i really got here?
Thank you very much in advance!!
Cheers, Bram Meijer
