Default Fallschirmjagergewehr!

Finally got my FG42 from Rick down at SMG Guns in Texas. Nice work. Real ones are a quarter million dollars. Way out of my league. A new Semi-auto will have to do. I've shot about 100 rounds through it. Works well. Likes being lubed up. Can ding the steel at 300 yards regularly off the bipod.

Wunderbar!!! Congrats.
I just read, "Palmetto State Armory announced, at the 2023 SHOT Show, that it would be producing a semi-auto StG44." So maybe an Stg44 will be your next WWII German auto!?
Thanks for sharing.

More likely a G-43 or G-41. I'm kind of fond of the "German Garands".
