Item 15 : German Machineguns
This book relates the complete story of German machineguns, from the very first MG01
period before WW one to the present day of Hecker & Koch HK21. In additional
information of a historical or purely technical nature, an effort has been made to present
certain facts that are of interest to collectors of German Militaria. Of particular
interest to collectors is the data on accessories, some of which are relatively unknown
outside Germany. While the chances of encountering these accessories will decrease year by
year. It is a distinct advantage to know what to look for, and how it relates to the
machinegun itself.
