After we launched the STG44 as a replica last year, we produce now the replica of the FG42 first model. The second model will follow directly after the first, because many spare parts are similar.

For constructing the design drawing we used the down mapped FG42 model 1. We got both models for measuring from a collector. Many thanks again! All tools and forms are produced by this examples.

As is the case for the BD44 all parts are manufactured after the historical original.For example the grip, the tripod and the stock are made by sheet metal stamping. All other parts are made by turning and milling. The forearm is made of wood and also produced in our factory. Pictures of manufacturing will follow soon.

The construction of the tools is not completed yet, because of this we can’t give any information about the price now. We ask for your understanding. Delivery only against proof of authority!

Owners of the BD38 or BD44 can order the BD42 with the same serial number. Of course, all other customers can order special serial numbers, too. We will satisfy your wish, if possible.

  For example: Components of the BD42I. - The reproduction of the famous FG42 is exactly according to the original (no. of parts, etc.).

Being the first manufacturer to rebuild the new, semi-auto version of the FG42, we have paid greatest attention to ensure our BD42I (like all our other weapons) corresponds to the original in every single, smallest detail, even the stamping. This ensures the weapon to be reliable and safe. For a test report of our BD42I., please read issue 11/08 of the famous German DWJ magazine.
