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 1061/h" on top, with a green paint finish overall, a pair of brown leather shoulder straps and a pair of leather pads on the front leg, as well as a small metal tool compartment on the left side. The elevation mechanism is finished black and marked "bkh/1943/4864/a".

Very good, with mild wear and handling marks overall. The elevation mechanism needs some adjustment, and all of the hinges and locks are in good order.
