Trying to contain myself until 6:00pm on Friday!!! After almost a year waiting for ATF approval and after offloading around 40% of my previous collection to pay for it, I was just notified that I can pick up my new-to-my collection FG 42 tomorrow. Comes with its very own original bayonet, sling, scope and mount. Before I pulled the proverbial "you bought it" trigger, Ken Keilholz in Cincy reviewed the bona fides of all of the items and gave me a short history of this particular gun. It's on his list of all known original FG42s in the latest version of the FG book, Death From Above, and he graciously promised to give me a history of this particular gun, where its been, and how it got there, from the first time he became aware of it to now, ending up with me.
Can't harldy wait, I feel like a 6 year old again on Dec 24th pestering my folks as to why Santa Claus can't show up right now!
