Lucky you.I just bought an MG-42 for 5 grand from a friend of mine just before he moved to chicago.
Amen. Someone with $5K available to buy a collectable Title II weapon would normally have done the research to know the standard caliber(s) for that weapon.What I find most interesting is that someone would spend 5 grand on a firearm and not even know what kind of ammo it uses. \
Why am I not believing this......

I'f it is full auto, you could get into HUGE trouble with the government if they find out and you don't have a license.
FWIW, an MG.42 is not a good choice for long term shooting fun unless you can count on spare parts and expert support. They use a lot of stamped parts and were more or less a "shoot the hell out of it and junk it" gun. The MG.34 or M1919 is a better bet for long life and durability.
I also notice J&G has these parts kits for sale. Not sure how much commonality actually exists between the Yugo M-53 and the MG-42
