MG 34 complete parts kits

[Snuffy]

Has anyone heard of someone carring or importing a MG34 parts kit without receiver in Canada??

Not enough of a market. Customs would likely give you no end of harrassment too.

about the only way aroaund customs hassels with a kit like that was A paperwork must be done

B Have someone who owns a semiauto ONLY one import the kit (NO reciever) its replacement parts.......

Anyone on the forum build one of these semi auto MG's?

 

[contact148]

lots of guys have built semi autos

BUT i dont think anyone has gotten cfc/rcmp to approve it and return it to them

they have had a semi of mine for 1.5 years...... they keep changeing the rules

One of the big problems is that as far as I know , the only "approved" semi-auto MG34 in the FRT is one built using the TNW receiver and patented bolt conversion.

Also, the receiver is exceedingly difficult to machine and "rewelds" are not useable since in Canada, once a machine gun, always a machine gun - no matter how many times it was torch cut. (unlike in the USA).

I am not aware of any source for bare TNW receivers and bolt parts, so...

Possibly Questar could get the receivers in, but then there would still be no parts kits around.

Or, just buy a complete gun from Marstar like I did.

As a person who attempted to build a "semi-auto only" mg34, and subsequently failed, I would advice against trying to build one. To save your self from unecesarry troubles, simply buy one from Marstar or a used one. Getting the receivers as a lone part isnt possible, and now with the boarder the way it is, parts kits arent easy to come by.
