Discussion

Are we sure these variants are all legit? The second and forth variants look like Small Arms Illustrated-style photoshop jobs, and as comically desperate as the Germans were during the later days of WWII, I seriously doubt that they made an official infantry conversion of the MG 81 with no sights - the gun in the image is probably just missing them.
