ATTN Johnone: MG 42

[wobbles99]

I designed a SA Mg-42 some time ago. We even had our two pre-production guns approved by the CFC, they are on the FRT.
For the money we would have to sink into the project it is not practical.

I hate to rain on your parade BUT there is a lot more involved than just making "a new receiver" two and a half years and thousand of dollars later we had what we wanted. That is end up with a gun that fires from a closed bolt and can NOT accept full auto parts or components.

If anyone out there wants to do the deal, e mail me. The project is for sale.

I'm not sure if it's kosher with you to talk about this in a public forum but I figured others might be thinking the same thing.

I was talking with some buddies and we are interested in possibly building a one off version of a semi mg 42.

Just a few questions about your design.

First. What tools would be required to fabricate the parts? I have access to a apprentice machinist and some machines but nothing too state of the art.

Second. How hard would a homebuilt mg 42 be to register. You state that there is already a FRT for it but would it still apply to a firearm built by an average joe and not a manufacturer?

Lastly and most important. Will you sell the plans to myself to produce a one off firearm?

He wants money to return on how much it cost him to design it. Plus almost no parts compatibility means your blowing tens of thousands just buying the machines to make the parts you might not even know how to use.

Welcome to a dead end.
