Wicked nice build!

I might need to get one of these! Looks amazing.

No build here, just as Denix made it.
I'll be adding the t-track and other slight mods eventually.

Just a heads-up, it's definitely not for trooping - HEAVY!
It is better looking in hand than in my lousy pics - It'll be a great display piece though!

Nice! Where did you order from?

 

[Jodo]

I have a Hyperfirm DLT-19, but am still so tempted to get one of these. I own several Denix items and wouldn’t mind adding another...

 

[HighlanderFX]

Wait wait, Denix came out with the 34 but not the 42?!

Congrats on picking up this piece, so far I’ve stuck the t-tracks on mine and sprayed the stock black until I can source the other couple of pieces to complete it. I think Denix did a great job on this, my only complaint are the sights are larger than on a real MG34 but for $300 this is fantastic!
mine so far……….

 

[russellsch]

I love mine. I haven’t added anything, or painted the stock yet. All in due time. This is a heavy beast! I clocked mine in at 16lbs.

Here’s a size comparison standing next to a Detolf.

I can’t wait to see everyone’s upgrades.

Have one on pre-order, hopefully next year late January it will be here. I will add t-tracks and most likely I will paint the wooden stock black. But am wondering where to get the disc and box over the belt feeder.

if there was enough interest, I’d machine these up. Any thoughts?

I’d definitely be interested!

 

[JamesM242]

WOW! This looks amazing! wannab - do you have a recommended retailer? I found some militaria shops online for pre-orders and one selling it for over $1,000. I would love any recommendations for a reputable seller.

I would be, but all considering the cost and shipping to EU.

Pretty!

Alas, not a thing ever available to Canucks. Canadian law says that replicas of restricted or prohibited weapons that are not legal antiques are also restricted or prohibited... and an MG34 is definitely a prohibited weapon in Canada. There's some weird wiggles around airsoft meaning that one could probably get (at a massive markup) an airsoft MG34, but a Denix would almost certainly get seized by customs.

But still, pretty! I'm happy for you.

Yep, had the same difficulties trying to get a Mauser "Broom Handle" for a Solo costume Had to phone my Father in Belgium to get one sent by mail to my house

I got mine from Replica Weaponry, but they are currently sold out.

I soon as I have some extra money I'm in! I've been wanting to make the Stormtrooper blaster version for a long time!
