#3 Appears to be a Rheinmetall MG3. Not something we want our law enforcement community to face I assure you.

#4 Was this U. S. citizen by any chance named Steve Jones? Part of the AoS, no doubt.

#6 You can tell by the front brake. Its appears to be an MG42. I've handled a couple. The 42 front brake is distinctly different lines/grooves compared to an MG3. An MG34 would have a round barrel shroud, so it's not that. I'm going with a 42.

#7 expect the following: "an automatic plasma rifle was discovered.... bought at a gun show..."
