Looks like germans tried to just fire quickly enough, thinking it does the job. Don't think they ever thought about actually being able to produce it in the same or more quantities than the Allies to do the job done. Why would they ever need these "versions" of MG34 and MG42?


MG42 whole purpose was to have an MG that could be mass produced with stamping technics.

To fit different tasks.... supression, anti aircraft fire, focused fire...

MG34 were mostly used in Tanks cause u can change the barrel from inside, and MG42 u can cause its a side mechnism.

Well then, I take it back about the MGs. Thanks for clarifying.

This is not correct. The lower rate of fire versions of the MG 34 had a lower rate of fire than the MG42. There were 600rpm, 800, 1000, 1200, 1500 and 1800 rpm versions of the 34.

Rate of fire could be altered very simply by manipulating the spring.


Early versions had adjusters that could go from 400-900 rpm.

The later 1800 RPM was primarily used for antiaircraft use, as an increased rate of fire made hits on a fast moving target like a fighter plane more likely.

As stated earlier, the MG42 was adopted because it essentially did the same thing an MG34 did, but for reduction in both cost and time to fabricate.

The same stamping machinework was utilized for the Stg/MP44 assault rifles.
