Description:

Designed to be carried on the back of an assistant gunner, the field mount for the MG42 machine gun could be rapidly unfolded to serve as an adjustable tripod or as the base for an anti-aircraft pintle mount (not included). Marked "43/eat 2394" on top with a green paint finish, full elevation and traverse adjustment, integral recoil buffer and optical sight base. Range chart mounted on the rear, a pair of leather shoulder straps and 2 leather pads on the front leg.

Rating Definition:

Very good, with some mild handling marks overall. The lock for the left rear leg has been stripped. Mild wear and scuffing is visible on the leather components. The traverse and elevation equipment, as well as the trigger lever, are in good order.
