The FG-42 as a Sniper Rifle?

http://www.patreon.com/ForgottenWeapons https://www.floatplane.com/channel/ForgottenWeapons/home Cool Forgotten Weapons merch! http://shop.bbtv.com/collections/forgotten-weapons The FG-42 was specifically made with a scope attachment on every rifle, and intended to serve as a marksman's or sniper's rifle. But how much of that actually happened during World War Two? And was the FG-42 actually suited to a sniper role? Contact: Forgotten Weapons 6281 N. Oracle #36270 Tucson, AZ 85740

Had an opportunity recently to examine a Krieghoff FG42 Type 1 with a serial number in the 1100s. Very interesting rifle. When the owner was asked if we could take it to the range as I had a box of 8x57 in the boot of the car he looked ashen. "Do you realise how much.....". We laughed but it is a pity that this rifle will never be fired in his ownership.
