Description
Original Item. Only One Available. The MG 34 was based on a 1930 Rheinmetall design, the MG 30. The Swiss and Austrian militaries had both licensed and produced the MG 30 from Rheinmetall shortly after patent. The MG 30 design was adapted and modified by Heinrich Vollmer of Mauser Industries. Vollmer modified the feed mechanism to accept either drum magazines or belt ammunition. He also increased the rate of fire. The MG 34’s double crescent trigger dictated either semiautomatic or fully automatic firing modes.
This is a very scarce breech cover for the MG-34, the first original example we have been able to offer. It comes in great near unissued condition without any serious damage or staining.
A small leather tab on one side bears the German 3 letter code bdq 43 for manufacture by Ehrhardt u. Kirsten, Koffer- u. Lederwarenfabrik, Leipzig in 1943, a well known and popular manufacturer of various leather goods including the P.08 Luger holsters.
A great example, ready to fit to your MG-34 for display!
