SFRC has a MG34 belt fed for sale
That MG34 sold a while ago. I bought my 2nd one off the EE last Feb. Bolt ejector spring was kinked and trigger did nothing when pulled. Got the bolt back to normal but trigger still wasn't working the bolt. After much playing around decided to swap bolts with my other MG34, I was shocked as hell, both worked. The 2nd one had a nice smooth trigger pull, the 1st had a 20lb pull but after swapping both are a nice manageable 5-10lb pull. Last time out with both, ran 75rds through them without 1 FTF. Happier than a pig in sht!!
It sounds as though our biggest hassle is not Can. regs, but US export law.
If there were only two countries in the entire world, us and them, this might be a problem.
However, with many former Warsaw pact countries dumping their old Soviet stuff, why doesn't some enterprising business bring in old Goryunov or Maxims to rebuild with a new semi receiver.

I have a Maxim 1910 kit as well. They and the Vickers (same gun sort of) are not as easy to build. An easier kit to build is the MG 42 or 53. IF you can get a kit. The 70% sheet metal is still avaiable from BRP gun etc and is not subject to export laws. The only problem is you need a US address as BRP etc will not ship to Canada. Oh did I mention I have an MG53 kit too.
www.kinek.com gives you a US mailing address if you are close enough to the border.
And here I thought the big problem was getting the belts.
Any word on more MG34's? Anyone? I have cash set aside for one!
No one? John? I sent Marstar an email last week but have not heard anything. There has to be someone somewhere that has even a shred of info.
