Rheinmetall MG15

Developed by Theodor Bergmann for use in aircraft, the MG15 had nothing in common with Bergmann's earlier MG15 n.A. despite sharing the name, being instead based off the MG30. Easily identified by it's unique saddle durm magazine, the MG15 was used in nearly all Luftwaffe aircraft in flexible mounts alongside it's fixed version, the MG17. The development of larger, faster and better armored planes made machineguns of it's caliber unsuited for aircraft usage, being replaced by larger caliber guns. As a result, the MG15 and other machineguns of it's type were often converted for ground usage, fitted with stocks, bipods and infantry sights.

Mauser MG42

The famous machine gun of the Heer during WW2, built as a cheaper replacement to the earlier MG34. The MG42 became famous for it's immense cyclic rate, capable of outputting upwards of 1500 rounds per minute, which resulted in it's nickname of "Hitler's Buzzsaw". The rate of fire was so high in fact, that replacing barrels on the field became necessary, and the barrel shroud feature an aperture on the right side for easy access.
The MG42 proved a phenomenal weapon, and after the war remained in use with numerous armies, influencing the design of notable machineguns like the M60 and the FN MAG. The Bundeswehr in fact, despite all it's efforts to distance itself from Nazi Germany, ended up adopting the successors of the MG42 for their performance.
