New Addition To The "Man Cave" (1 Viewer)

[PanzerAce1944]

Sharing some pics of my latest WWII collectible. A replica German MG42 machine gun. Full 1/1 scale with authentic leather sling.
Not just a shelf display item. Fires .22 Cal BB's @ 1200 rpm which replicates an actual MG42 rate of fire. Great fun to shoot !

If a burglar broke into your house and had a quick look around I suspect he might just try next door instead!

A nice one
Here in Belgium, you can not buy any firearm, without an inquiry from the police, and you must have a very good reason
Nowadays, death by firearms in Belgium 155 on a 11M population ( 0.014%)
the top 5
# 1 India: 37,170
# 2 Russia: 28,904
# 3 Colombia: 26,539
# 4 South Africa: 21,553
# 5 United States: 16,204 for 320M ( 0.05%)

Allas, far to much, I agree
reading your CDC report " .... Excessive alcohol use led to approximately 88,000 deaths... "
on a 320M population ... 27,5 for 100.000

We all suffer of the alcohol abuse, and we know that prohibition change nothing to that
Worse is smoking; the highest level of death everywhere, no need of statistics for that
Well .. that is what we see of he iceberg
cause of death world wide ( by deseases )

The C6 (FN MAG) is the general purpose machine gun of the Canadian army, and many of its parts and overall design are based on the MG42. I think it's testament to the MG42's effectiveness that many of the machine guns currently in use are based off it.

In Texas the cops will would stop you if you were seen carrying it just so that they could check it out and ask you where you bought it so that they could get one too.
