Description

You are bidding on a VERY NICE used example of WW2 German Wehrmacht MGZ 40 (Machinengewehr Zeilfernrohr 40) Scope, as used in conjunction with the 34 and 42! This was produced by the VERY RARE maker, G Heyde K-G of Dresden.
Mounted on both the 34 and 42 Lafette Tripod, the MGZ 40 sight was allowed the shooter to have their head lower and thus less exposed when aiming through the sight.
Made of aluminum steel by bwt (G Heyde K-G, Dresden, German) this aiming scope was manufactured between 1944 and 1945. Though it has some marks, scratches, and wear, it still retains 95% of its original Dunkelgelb camouflage paint! No major damage or corrosion, and all adjustments work correctly. The manufacture code and data information is stamped into the top, indicating:
bwt
2945
The optics are VERY CLEAR, with only slight haze and spotting (see photo). There is one crack in the eyepiece lens, but it does not detract from the view, and it is not noticeable. All adjustments are FULLY functional. The eye cup is also original, which is quite rare, as they usually go missing, or are replaced. All spirit levels are functional, with no cracks. The carrying case is the original to this scope, with “MGZ40” clearly stenciled on the top. I have shown its location in the last images. One of the NICEST I have ever seen of its type, it is a VERY NICE scope that would make a PERFECT addition to any collection or display!
