Well first off this definitely isn't an original MG34/41 as the parts do not match what the Bakelite variants used. The barrel and grip are both incorrect. So this is easier a replica made to look rusted, beat up, and broken or it's a post-WW2 variant created from parts and then used in following conflicts. Additionally, looking at the part of the video that has the stock in full view, it is missing the required waffenamt inspection stamp that is done to indent into the material. Therefore the stock is either again a replica post-WW2 or a faked piece.
@@saaint_aint_a_trendsetter I'm a ww2 history buff. If you claim something that isn't true then it's called faking and lying. I'll always point out people who fake stuff. Like when people trying to claim they found an MP40 magnet fishing in a place that never saw combat with German forces and the weapon looks like it's made out of plastic lmao This obviously isn't a 1941 model. It likely is a demilitarized version that is very very post-war and was made to look like it was pre-war.
Firearms that I find that need restoring are almost never in original condition. I do this because this hobby is truly addicting and enjoy every moment of it. I retired from making and fixing surgical equipment so I can appreciate all work like this.
I mean if you think about it, it working and it from ww2 could increase it, but yeah I agree it should be kept it’s original condition so it can keep it’s artifactal condition
Das war keine Restaurierung, sondern der volle chemische und mechanische Vorschlaghammer, um ein glänzendes Teil für das Vid zu präsentieren. Hier wird mit kompletter Missachtung für den historischen Wert gearbeitet. Dazu kommt, dass die meisten Teile höchstwarscheinlich selbst berostet werden. Sieh dir mal die ganzen Thumbnails an, sieht fast immer gleich aus, der "Rost". Bei dieser Fakerei werden jede Menge alte, seltene und historisch wertvolle Gegenstände komplett vandalisiert. Wenn du mal richtige Restaurierung sehen willst, empfehle ich Mark Nowak oder Backyard Ballistics. Letzterer hat auch schon auf die ganzen fake Restaurierungs Kanäle hingewiesen.
@@tinytonk128 Ich habe nie behauptet, dass es sich um Farbe handelt. Man kann Metall auch mit Chemie rosten lassen. Und das wird hier warscheinlich immer wieder gemacht.
This channel is full of fakery. The "rust" almost always is the same, look at the thumbnails. I recommend Mark Nowak and Backyard Ballistics for real restaurations.
@@торнадосорхота assuming you know what a gun is it goes without saying that this is a purely aesthetic restoration to then leave the piece on the nightstand rather than scrap it and certainly not shoot it....... I have done thousands of revisions on the FASS 57 assault rifle and once the work was finished I went to the shooting range to test them and adjust them, greetings ;-)
👍👍 Ideally it would be nice to know where the MG34 has been for the last 80 years? The MG34 was of course replaced by the MG42 mainly I understand because the latter was cheaper to produce by way of using more pressed steel components. There were also other design changes made, the result of which increased the rate of fire from about 900 rounds per minute on the MG34 to about 1300 rpm on the MG42, which is quite staggering.
Should convicted Felons , who haven't been in trouble for more than fifteen years. I have a nonviolent felony.And I'm not allowed to own a gun anymore.But my Conviction was in 2009. They told me.I paid my debt to society but apparently they lied to me. I haven't been in any trouble since then.And I have no right to protect my family apparently. Even though i've been a lawabiding citizen Since then
Crazy how the German army still uses the mg42 82 years later (mg3 but it’s a simple round conversion from Mauser 7.92x57 to nato 7.62x51) if it ain’t broke don’t fix it
@@user1605. for your information and since you seem so intelligent, the MG34 (Maschinengewehr mod.1934) was not at all created for anti-aircraft use at its origin. It was an infantry machine gun, which was then mounted on tanks, then effectively transformed into anti-aircraft weapon, by addition of large-width collimators and probably more efficient ammunition, which could not have had the slightest use in infantry combat.
Regarding that piece dislodged from the stock, do you reckon it was the result of being struck by a plow, or the machine gun being hit by a shell fragment or grenade fragment?
@@LuckyMan-t6m на наших участках в войну трофейная команда стояла. А сосед там до революции ещё жил. Вот это дед и стырил пулемёт, а потом со сраху закопал. Когда стали уплотнять замтройку. Сказали, что ему герою гражданской жирно 26 соток, дели, а то сами поделим. Он разделил домовладнние на 6 участков и продал. Наш оказался снежный с его домом и с пулемётом. Его уже мой отец выкопал.
I would have left it with the natural wood stock and grip. Still a good job. You brought it back to how you received it. Just different taste for others. Maybe the person who sent it wanted the same as you got it. Thanks 😎🤓😝😛😋🤔😅🎳🎺
Even today there must be tons of these MG34 parts kits that were torch cut by the ATF when imported into the USA years ago. Then put together on Aluminum recieves for dispalay in peoples houses. I remember seeing these things for sale. Mint condition, deep blued, all matching, brought in by at Century Arms. God only knows what happened to all of them.
Great Video Sir.. that MG looked GREAT .I’m gonna make one critical suggestion.. instead of U40 Penetrating Oil .. try my old tried and tested anti sieze.. it’s expensive but it’s called AeroKroil… I’ve tried them all.. Kroil was 5x better than anything I’ve tested.
Полная ерунда, а не реставрация. Объект практически рабочий. Всё снимается, без отмачиваний и прогрева корпуса. У нас даже в 90тых такого не было. Было конечно, но в большей степени не было.
Every weapon is the EXACT same color of orange ? Different metals rust differently... And wood NEVER rusts, but his projects do. Suspicious ? Nah, not at all......
Very good job on that one. By the way in one of your last restoration videos about the k98 bayonett you replaced the push button and spring. Where can i find those parts to buy? I wanna do a restoration myself.
How many parts are there in 1000? The weapon as such was good, but I doubt whether the constructors really worked hard to make this weapon so complicated. So it turns out that the more complicated the better? Goodness usually lies in simplicity!
Scusami per la mia CURIOSITÀ , ma le armi da te RESTAURATE , sono in grado di SPARARE di nuovo ? Oppure sono rese INERTI ? Grazie . Ho notato che i sistemi di scatto e le Canne sono libere ....... NON OTTURATE .
Fascinating to watch. Master Craftsman and Restorer took this “Rusted Junk” project of history about as far as it could go, given the condition. Like the “50/50” reference on this restoration from an earlier respondent. Sums it up.
