Cerwyn in the manual

Just received my lovely new FG42 E-type, (first model) from Shoei -
An absolutely wonderful replica.
Beautifully packaged and mailed efficiently from Tomio in Japan.





Looking over the accessories, the dummy rounds, magazine and manual, noticed, the translator was a Cerwyn Jones - is that our own member mentioned in black and white?

It will go well with the other toys in the FJ collection.
The FG in the second picture was made in 1944 by Krieghoff - through I do have a Shoei 2nd model G-type, too.

How fun!

Tomio's service was second to none, as usual.

The manual is very well translated.

I should have ordered one of their slings, too.

I have a Yugoslavian M53 sling on the original FG42 as the original slings are maniacally expensive.

If you are looking for an original sling, I have one sourced, but it costs more than the replica Shoei FG42 I just bought.
Also beyond the sling latch, which has the same marking as the K98 latch, there are no factory markings or dates, so you have no proof it is an actual Fg 42 sling, or anything other than an original K98 sling with altered parts from a machine-gun sling and or G98 swivels.
