Yeah good ole American propaganda.

It not only physically chewed up soldiers it had far worse effects on the moral and took a huge emotional and mental toll as well . Dad said that when the first few rounds went out everybody dropped and lot of the times after the weapon had be taken out some troops refused to move dad said you go to their position and they would be curled up shaking , clutching their weapon, s their faces were either white or gray.

The weapon caused panic in all allied armies. The high rate of fire sliced ​​through the bodies. Instructional films were created depreciating the MG42 by the American army at the time so that soldiers would lose their fear of the weapon. Interestingly, this was not made public during the war as it favored the enemy. And the silence continued for decades to come. Although we do not have photos of these mutilations, one can imagine what they were like if we remember the episode of the public execution of hostages in Bohemia and Moravia in reprisal for the deaths of German soldiers by communist partisan guerrillas in that territory. The Protector of Bohemia and Moravia, Heydrich invited Himmler, head of the SS, to watch the execution by machine-gun fire. The MG42 ripped off pieces of the hostages' bodies and some remained standing for seconds without arms, and with huge chunks of flesh ripped off. Himmler became ill and had to withdraw from the ceremony. So a mere instructional film would not convince the soldiers of what they were seeing happening before their eyes.

My grandpa (Pionier in a Gebirgsjäger Division) explained me like this: a MG team was 3 Soldiers, the Gunner, the Barrel Handler and the Ammonition Bearer. The Barrel Handler had thick there gloves and changed the barrels. Each MG42 had 3 barrels in the field. in position the BH was right of the gunner. And had to make sure the barrels cool down dry, as get damaged being could too fast in mud or water. The ammo bearer had to takecare that the belts are always. Changing barrels was done in less than 5 sec by a good team.

It was way too fast. The idea was that engagements was very short (measured in seconds) when you could see your enemy. Hence, you wanted as many bullets on target in those precious seconds. However, as mentioned in many interviews, it chewed through ammo way too fast which was a huge problem especially on the eastern front with more or less non functional supply lines. It did however lay the foundation for the modern GPMG such as the FN MAG which more or less is a copy with some modifications.

By changing the recoil feather and using a ligther bolt, we managed to bring it to 1900 rounds/minute. Once we had to much Ammo left at the shooting range and we used about 10 modified in Schwabo as Lawn mowers. It worked very well, the grass was cut well and we had less paperwork to return unused Ammo. I was there as an Instructor and it still is my preferred weapon.

Excellent presentation of the MG-34 and MG-42. I’ve fired the MG-42, but it was converted to 7.62 NATO and had the “slow” bolt. I was told that the MG-42 team (gunner and barrel changer) could remove and replace the barrel in 4 seconds. The barrel changer wore mitts. To reduce the frequency of barrel changes, only short bursts of full-auto was used - maybe 36 rounds or so. It’s fast! The MG-34, though - that is a thing of beauty!

The amount of intelligence and engineering of these designers is just incredible. Now if only they had used that knowledge for the betterment of humanity.

Thousands more (maybe even over a million) would have died, but realistically, the navy would have just poured more shells in, and the beachheads would have eventually solidified a front. The blockade/bubble that Montgomery wanted desperately to push out off would have been tiny at the beginning too. The bridges and keypoints paratroops went to hold, would have mostly been taken back. Brave as they may have been, they weren't going to hold out indefinitely. The front simply wouldn't have go to them in time to reinforce them. The U-boats heading for the channel would have had more time too. But Germany didn't have the steel, oil, or allies by then. Italy had capitulated, and try as they did, the synthetic oil they were making was still not good enough to fuel the entire Arme. Engine damage was higher too. Perhaps, the German scientists involved with the atomic bomb, might have found the answer, dispite the lead scientist delaying as much as he could. The war would have been far longer, Britain would have been in far bigger financial problems. My Irish government would have sat in denial for longer... (we called it the "crisis"), and I'm realising this has got super long.... Some of the landings would have been a catastrophic failure in relation to costs is the answer.

Something many people might not know, the MG42 is theoretically still in service in the Bundeswehr, but as the NATO 7.62x51 chambered version, called MG3. While it was "only" produced until '77, they are still being used, albeit not for the long future, as they are slowly replaced by the MG4 and MG5. Maybe we will see the MG7 or MG8 at the time they are completely out of service, as the replacement is very, VERY slow.

No recording will ever really do gunfire justice... Gunfire by it's nature is louder than anything a speaker can reproduce, both mechanically and safely. It will produce a terrifying sound of 1200 rpm cracking over your head, combined with the *thump* and smacks of bullets hitting dirt / nearby objects... US propaganda about the weapon was a desperate attempt at underplaying the effectiveness of the weapon. Being a machinegunner myself and having fired the modern version, it is a terrifyingly effective weapon... A stream of lead which is actually easier to control than other MG's with half the firerate. The constant push of the MG3, results in a pretty managable recoil - which would only have made it that more effective.

@@mustardstain504d6 It's being replaced in the German army right now. The "boring, but sensible" MG5 will be the iron/plastic that'll replace the absolutely wild MG3/MG42. It's like "lawful good" replacing "chaotic good" (if you have ever fired an MG3 and then taken a look at your shoulder, you'll know what I mean). The MG5's RoF is pretty much half of the MG3's - around 640 RPM (adjustable up to 800), which is less than the G36 standard issue rifle. The MG3 has around 1150 RPM +/- 50. The problem with the MG3 is simply the ammo consumption and the overheating of the barrel as well as it being just outdated. The MG5 has all those fancy Picantinny Rails and is delivered with a 4x optical scope (not entirely sure on the magnification). Oh, and for a reason I haven't been able to fathom yet, they all come in tan color, which is great for missions on desert/steppe terrain, but considering Germany doesn't exactly have that terrain and the Bundeswehr supposedly being a defense-focused military, it seems sub-optimal.

Er ist kein Mensch, er ist kein Tier, er ist ein Panzergrenadier. x_x I remember learning to field strip the MG3 about a month into my basic training. We'd had one of the first frosts of the year, so there I was, lying in the hoarfrosted grass at around 6:50 in the morning, fumbling away and being generally cold and miserable. I am small, so reaching the muzzle brake was a bloody stretch, and screwing it on was not easy. The bloody thing kept falling out of my frozen fingers; around the 3rd or 4th time of that happening, I suddenly remembered that it was my birthday. Happy days when you are miserable, cold, and have forgotten your own birthday. I never managed to get a pass shooting it, as we were supposed to engage 3 targets out of 8, with 10 (?) rounds of ammo, and I always, ALWAYS, was so confuddled that I engaged the first target, then the second, and then had run out of ammo or switched back to the first target or completely missed with my last burst.

just amazing machine guns both mg-34 & mg 42 crazy fast rate! just a great design. especially with the barrel replacement from behind!

As I served in the German Bundeswehr from 1990-92, I learned to shoot the MG3, a slightly modified version of the MG42. My personal gun was an MG3 with an original WWII MG42 Body with the german eagle stamped in. It was always very special and extremly funny to shoot this gun. As a 1,95 m, 100 kg man, I was also trained to shoot this heavy gun staying upright, using the shoulder strap - not very accurate ... but ;-) If you developed a good feeling for this weapon, you could shoot with it amazingly accurately, even at longer range. But you have to control yourself and always stay focused. When it comes to shooting, the machine-gun is pushed forward over the bipod, so that the bipod does not point forward at an angle, like you do, but backwards at an angle. As a result, the bipod absorbs a large part of the recoil and the weapon is much easier to control, which is especially important for long bursts and at greater distances. In addition, unlike assault rifles, with the MG, you do not lie kind of diagonally behind the weapon, but straight. In slow motion, you can clearly see the recoil pushing the shoulder and upper body away, thereby losing control of the weapon.

I bet many allied soldiers rightfully pissed their pants when they heard a 42 going off in the distance. What a beast of a gun... Just terrifying.

My grandfather has told me stories that gave me Nightmares when I was a kid. He was on a MG42 from 1940 to 1944 when he defected. And he only told me about 1 story involving a Sherman.

***** The Sherman had TNT rounds which burned when hit. Later wet storage made them more robust, and gave the crew a chance to get out. German and Russian tanks used PETN explosive which detonated when hit. The P-47 would shower the Panther roof with .50 caliber bullets, and Whumpf, the turret would pop off when the rounds exploded. Rockets were also used with success. German soldiers learned to greet each other with the German glance "Der Deutches Blick" scanning the skys for the dreaded US or GB Jabos. Then we can talk about the US artillery, equipped with air burst variable time fuses, conducting multi battalion time on target missions. After that, there wouldn't be any 88mm gunners left alive. No warning given by adjusting fire. The few wounded Germans left alive were normally evacuated and their wounds treated by the Americans.

***** In the Bulge, Peiper took 5000 some odd men through US lines, having to fight their way through because the German infantry hadn't accomplished their mission of opening a hole. He had some of those King Tigers with him. He actually led with Pz IVs, because the Tigers used too much fuel. After murdering some POWs as Malmedy, and hundreds of Belgian civilians along the way, he got blocked when Combat Engineers cut the bridges he needed, and shelled to the point of being combat ineffective. He ran, only bringing 500 of his men got out. His men, wounded, treated by the US medical corps, and captured were only too willing to rat him out. Although the war crimes trial wouldn't accept their evidence, there was a happy ending when he was shot by persons unknown while living in France. He was too unpopular to live in Germany.
