Hi guys,
Sorry Erich, but I dont have website on our museum, yet, but I am planing to open one. I have a website on my BSA M20 WWII motorbike, which I am restoring, take a look:

David, yes I think the scopes are original, but the mount is a remanufactured one. Interesting about the jamming problems on the FG-42, never heard that before, but then again I am not an expert on that weapon. I wonder if this machinist is making his parts better quality then the original once? But looking at his prices, seams you will have to pay around $12000 for a working gun!
I have 6 machine guns in my collection: M2 BMG .50 cal from B-17, ANM2.30 cal wing gun from P-39. MKII .303 Nose gun from RAF Hudson III, Vickers "K" gun .303 from RAF Hudson III aft turret. German MG-15 7.92mm Aircraft gun. Lewis 1918 30-06 WWI aircraft gun, used on Icelandic fishing trawlers in WWII.
