CampaignEdit

The MG34 is the Axis' machine gun of choice. It utilizes 75-round drums, and does fairly good damage. It has low recoil and a pretty high rate of fire, making it very versatile, as it can engage both long and close range targets, but its reload time is very long.

MultiplayerEdit

This weapon is the German light machine gun in multiplayer. It is largely the same as the other light machine guns, in the fact that it fires from a 75-round belt and deals high damage with high accuracy, but has a long reload time. It has a higher rate of fire than the other light machine guns, but with less damage than the M1919. However, its damage is the same as the DP-28 Soviet light machine gun. It can kill in one shot to the head, or three shots to the body.

Call of Duty 2: Big Red One Edit

This weapon is found in the level An Easy Detail and Farewell to Friends. It is similar to the M1919 Browning, in the sense that the player immediately goes prone and mounts the bipod when aimed down its sights, though mounting it takes much longer than the M1919A6 .30 Cal. It can also be mounted on small obstacles, like through a window or in a bunker. It has a 75 round drum magazine, a high rate of fire, and high power, as it can take down an enemy in a few shots.

Call of Duty 3 Edit

"Maschinengewehr 34. 7.92mm LMG. Adopted for squad support roles by the German army in 1934. 7.92mm rifle cartridge belt or drum fed. 900 rounds per minute. Effective range of 1000 meters."

— In-game description

The MG34 appears in Call of Duty 3.

CampaignEdit

In the level "The Mace", several MG34s can be found. Like the M1919A6, the MG34 is incredibly powerful and can kill in 1-2 shots. The MG34s that appear in this mission have plenty of ammunition.

MultiplayerEdit

The MG34 is only available for the Axis. It performs near-identically to the M1919A6, and like the M1919A6, the player automatically drops to prone position whenever they aim down the sights. The MG34 has somewhat clearer iron sights than the M1919A6, making it easier to use at longer ranges. The reload time is quicker than the M1919A6's. However, when using the bipod, deployment time is slower than the M1919A6's.
