The MG 42 (shortened from German: Maschinengewehr 42, or "machine gun 42") is a German recoil-operated air-cooled general-purpose machine gun used extensively by the Wehrmacht and the Waffen-SS during the second half of World War II.

This resulted in the MG42V, also called MG 45, which modified the breech mechanism of the MG42 so that it didn't completely lock before firing. The revised locking system was a semi-rigid roller lock very similar in design to the later G3 rifles made by H&K.

MG42枪的最大的特点是其相对较高的射速，约每分钟1200发（有资料提到德国二战时期的一些手册标明射速为1500发/分，相当于每秒钟能打出25发)，是英国维克斯机枪和美国勃朗宁的600发/分的两倍。 采用如此高的射速，是根据以前的实验和战场经验得出的结论，有人认为由于一名射手在转瞬间内很难打中一名敌人，必须在相同的单位时间内发射更多的子弹来增加命中机会。 这样的原则通常应用于航空机枪或高射机枪上，但缺点是弹药消耗过快，而且由于MG42采用比MG34 …

Also referred to as the MG42V, the high cadence was achieved by the so-called light bolt also used in the MG42. The bolts are seemingly the same, the locking is the same (roller), the only difference is the weight.
