German Assault Rifle FG-42 (2nd model) The 2nd model FG-42 is introduced for the first time on a limited exclusive basis from our supplier. This Fallschirmjaeger Gewehr was made only for the famous WWII German Paratrooper units. The FG-42 is the most desired collectable of WWII and was produced in very limited numbers. It represents the best of the original Assault Rifles developed during WWll, which fired the full powered German 7.92 mm Rifle cartridge. This non-firing limited edition has over 85 machine metal and wood parts, model can be disassembled by a qualified gunsmith.
In the original form, also known as FG-42 1st model or FG-42-1, no more than 2,000 rifles in 1st modification were delivered. It soon became apparent that the lightweight rifle lacked the necessary strength to handle powerful rifle ammunition in full automatic mode. Manufacturing cost was too expensive as well. By early 1944 the redesigned FG-42, the so called 2nd model attempted to address these shortcomings. Being heavier and slightly longer, the FG-42-2 was still too light to be effectively fired in full auto, even from integral bipod, and still too expensive, especially compared to the contemporary Stg.44 assault rifle. Before the end of war about 5,000 2nd model FG-42 rifles were produced. Both models are highly prized. The FG-42 served as a basis for the American M60 machine gun.
Length: 38", Weight: 11 lbs. May be disassembled by a qualified gunsmith. (Non-Firing Collector/Reenactment Model)
