I see that ZIB are making a replica MG34

Has anyone tried to adapt these to airsoft? Or is it just too damn tricky?

Heidi and I looked into these before the Custom MG-42's were built.

They have a solid receiver - so not a viable option at the time

Have you got a link? If the rest of the parts are usable, and it's not hideously expensive, i could probaly machine a fake receiver to fit an M14 box.

Pretty expensive with the Euro rate atm.

Ah, not so good then. I will need an MG34 for the sidecar, eventually, but that's a long-term project, after i've actually got the damn thing rebuilt. :lol:

Has the prospect of a reasonably priced MG34 sunk without trace now then?

If so I will resurrect the MG34 cobble up project.

Those mg34's are actually made by Sturm and are just sold by Zib. There are quite a few german militaria companies that sell them!

So don’t think I marched there for this reason – it could carry another name – but because there is a very important goal... this goal I wanted to take – and you know – we are very modest, we have it already."
Adolf Hitler, November 1942

"Comrades, Red Army men, commanders and political workers, men and women guerrillas! It is on your perseverance, staunchness, fighting skill and readiness to discharge your duty to the country that the defeat of the German-fascist army and the liberation of the Soviet land from the Hitlerite invaders depend! We can and must clear the Soviet land of Hitlerite vermin."
Joseph Stalin, November 1942
