That's an XP-72. The contra-rotating props and P-47 lines are a dead giveaway.

What was it's intended use
Liberator. Single shot .45
Made in the good old USofA and delivered to the resistance in Europe.
It was the gun you used to get another gun.

German MG 34. They also modeled the Stormtrooper blasters after British Sterling sub-machine guns.

And don't forget that Han Solo's weapon was modeled after the Luger.

The 42 had a slightly different heat shield. See how the MG 34 was round?
The MG42 was squared

Our M-60 was oddly familiar, too...

Darth's right - that picture is a 34. A 42 has flat sides and large vents on each side. The 34 has a rounded barrel shroud and it ported in more of a Swiss cheese pattern.

Here's a better picture where you can see the grip..
It's actually based on the Mauser C96.

I'll suck at the guns and only be slightly better with the armor.
If, however, you need an aircraft or warship closer I'm your guy.
