The FG 42 rifle can be seen in the following television series, video games, and anime used by the following actors:
This revolutionary automatic rifle was produced in limited numbers for the German Fallschirmjäger (Airborne) during the Second World War. The slim in-line design, coupled with the side mounted 20 round magazine made it one of the more distinctive designs of its era. Early models came with a dramatically angled pistol grip and metal furniture while later models had a standard grip and wooden furniture (possibly due to wartime shortages). In addition the weapon could also be fitted with a ZF4 or ZFG42 scope.
