Grumpy Posted July 17, 2004 Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 Hi Gang, I know this is way off topic, but just asking. Looking to buy a Maxim 08 parts set to build up into a display/dummy gun. Missed out on the ones IMA had. Also looking for a Shoei replica FG-42 Type I. May not be able to get both right now. Let's talk. Thanks, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumpy Posted August 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2004 Thanks guys for the input. Will drop Allegheny Arsenal a e-mail. Know they had a working 08 for sale before. Maybe they have some left-over parts. The FG-42 at Sarco and Auction Arms are the 2nd design type. Missed out on a 1st design type e-bay earlier this month ( item number 2253477808 ). Story of my life. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abwehr Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Grumpy, There is a group buy going on at the Weaponners Group Buy Forum now. I think these kits are Russian guns captured by the Finns. From what I have read, they are in very nice condition. The price is in the $500-600 range, but it includes the wheeled tripod in a wood case. Here is the web address to the buy: http://www.weaponeer.net/groupbuy/forum/fo...ics.asp?FID=191 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green57 Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 Grumpy, You can find a second generation "E" model fg42 at www.wwiiguns.com. This second gen model can use a "cap" to cycle the action to make a report and smoke. Runs $1,285.00 but at least you can "shoot" it unlike the first gen model.
