rangefinder Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I had a great find at work today... I,m working on a Motion Picture and we are shooting a bunker scene filled with firearms and I found not only a real Sterling in the Set dressing, but also an MG-34, turns out the Weapon Handler is an old buddy and I now have an open invite to his shop to photograph any gun I want to (they have 14 MG-34s in stock)....After explaining that I was building a Santrooper, I found out that he is a huge fan too...I thought this would be a great way to give back to all the folks at the MEPD for all the hard work that they have put into the site...please let me know if there is a certain picture/angle/detail shot I can get for you and it's done!

Ciscotiger Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 What's up Jordan, Can you take pics of the Lewis Gun with a measuring tape next to it. (Top, Bottom Side/Side, Front, Back) That would be a great pic template for a newbie like me to try to build it from scratch. Thanks a lot!

(Top, Bottom Side/Side, Front, Back) That would be a great pic template for a newbie like me to try to build it from scratch. Thanks a lot! Great idea!! That would be very usefull... Also, if thats not toooooo much asking, a picture with a grid under the gun would be awesome. Something like a cutting mat with the square pattern under the gun. If it is to difficult, well... no worries bro! Thx for doing this. Saludos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serious_bass Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 This is a fantastic offer and greatly appreciated. The more photos you can get the better... Side top and bottom pics of the receiver and also the stock would be of great help to me... But anything would be helpful! Thanks for this!!!

pandatrooper Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Awesome, thank you! I'm also building a T21 / Lewis too, so detailed pics of the top, receiver on both sides, trigger, and rear butt stock profile (oval again) would be great!

ObiHahn Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 This is great. How can I download the pics of the MG34 in you post? I don't seem to be able to do it... clicking them only opens the slideshow that shows all 5 pics, but there's no "right click -> save" possible.

Revolver Ocelot Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Right click image, properties, highlight and copy address, paste adress in browser assress bar. Right click and Save picture as. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObiHahn Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Right click image, properties, highlight and copy address, paste adress in browser assress bar. Right click and Save picture as. Thanks, but this only works in IExplorer, not with Firefox which I usually use. Strange, but hey - it worked after all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
