The MG42 was the World War 2 upgrade of the MG34.  Though a different enough design to merit being listed as a different gun, the MG42 was an attempt by Wartime Germany to create a crew served machine gun that was easy to manufacture.  The MG42 used stampings whereas the MG34 was a finely machined gun, thus slow to produce in large quantities.  It was chambered in 7.92x57mm Mauser aka 8mm Mauser.
