Motorcycles have been going to war, as long
as there have motorcycles around to go to war.
Dnepr K-750M
In a military conflict, any bike will do if it’s reliable, and
Russian bikes are purpose-built to withstand just about
anything. First came the M-72, next Ural, and then Dnepr,
all intended as military machines.
M-72 (CossackPower (b-Cozz))
Does it stir your heart when you see a sidecar with a
machine gun, or watch an old re-run of “Rat Patrol”?
IMZ (later to become "Ural") M-72 Soviet Military Motorcycle
with DP Light Machine Gun
Ural’s M-72 started it all.

Old Timer Garage
Degtyarev 7.62mm x 54mm Circular Magazine for DP-28
International Military Antiques Inc

the pan magazine of 47 rounds fed from the top.
•
German MG-34
•
First general purpose air-cooled machine gun to appear as a replacement for the bulky water cooled guns of the previous generation.
introduced for the first time on a large scale features such as quick change barrels, bipod/tripod mounting, and metallic belts which are now considered standard.
•
Caliber: 7.92x57mm Mouser (also known as 7.9mm Mouser or 8mm Mouser)
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
First Produced and Accepted into Service in 1934
High quality design made for a comparatively costly and slow production rate
Precision machined parts also proved to be very sensitive and prone to
malfunction in the harsh conditions of field use
Uses both magazine and belt-fed 7.92mm ammunition.
– Available in saddle drum magazines of 75 rounds, belts of 50 rounds and
boxed belts of 250 rounds
Used in either the light or heavy sustained fire roles
Fitted with bipod for use in the light role and mounted on a tripod in the heavy
role
High rate of fire, up to 900 rounds/min. and Gun was fitted with a quick-change
barrel to prevent overheating and prolong barrel life
Designed to perform both as a light machine gun and early example of a
general purpose machine gun
– In the light-machine gun role, equipped with a bipod and 50-round
ammunition belt contained in a drum-shaped basket, which could be
attached to the receiver
– In Heavier role, Mounted on Larger Tripod and was belt-fed. In practice, the
infantry usually just belt-fed the bipod version, resulting in it functioning as
a classic
Used as primary infantry machine gun early in WW II, it
remained as the primary tank and aircraft defensive weapon.
Air-cooled, the barrel overheated quickly and had to be
changed as often as every 300 rounds.

MG-42 Machine Guns
•

•
•
•
•
Introduced in Early 1941 as Simpler, More-Rugged Successor to MG-34
– MG-34: Expensive and Time-Consuming to Produce
– MG42: Used Stamped Parts, Simplifying Production
– Integral Bipod and Quick-Change Barrel
MG-42 Regarded by Many Experts as Best-Ever Machine Gun
– Proved to Be Reliable and Rugged, under Most Extreme Conditions
Air-cooled and Recoil-Operated with Slightly Recoiling Barrel
– Recoil Mechanism Based on Newly-Invented Construction of
Breech with Rollers
During WWII, MG-42 Had Fastest Rate of Fire of Any Weapon
– No Single Shot Capability
– 1200 Rounds per Minute (up to 1800 in some versions)
– Led to Decreased Barrel Life Compared to MG-34 Predecessor
Belted 7.92mm Ammunition Fed from the Left
Few Draw-Backs Due to its High Rate-of-Fire
– Used Vast Quantities of Ammunition
– Remained Susceptible to Overheating
The human ear cannot discern the sound of individual
bullets being fired.The MG-42 makes a sound like
“ripping cloth," earning it the nickname of "Hitler's Buzzsaw."
MG-42 Machine Gun Replicas
001.565
deco, perfect replica, very original look.
PK Machine Gun
• General Purpose Machine Gun (GPMG)
• Designed in Soviet Union and Currently in Production in
Russia
• Introduced in 1965 to Replace SGM and RPD Machine Guns
in Soviet Service
• Fires 7.62 mm
• Used as Light Anti-Aircraft (AA) Weapon When Put on AA
Mount
Soviet Machine Guns feed from the right and ejects spent
cases via an ejection port on the left, as opposed to the
right side ejection port seen in most Western machine guns.
Airsoft Machine Guns
Airsoft machine guns are the least expensive approach.
Plus the little orange cap helps to placate the police.

Much like antiques, the price of a machine gun is heavily
dependent on its condition and heritage.
Most folks will opt for the airsoft “look-a-likes.”

Adding a NATO-Style Front-Corner Machine Gun Mount
(Silver Goose: The Eastern Block,
http://www.silvergoosestore.biz/nato%20inst.htm)
Find the spot where you will drill the hole for the
tube to come through the top of the tub. Square
up to the edge of the tub as shown above, using
the second loop as a reference point.

Measure down the square to 16-1/2 inches.
Adding a NATO-Style Front-Corner Machine Gun Mount
(Silver Goose: The Eastern Block)
Mark it and ready your drill motor with the
2” to 2-1/4” hole-saw. Center punch your mark and
carefully start the pilot bit into the top of the tub.
Slowly saw the hole through. Clean up the hole
with a file if needed.
Adding a NATO-Style Front-Corner Machine Gun Mount
(Silver Goose: The Eastern Block)
Moving to the inside of the tub, remove the right
bumper bolt and set it aside, used later to anchor
the foot plate. Just put it in to mark the second
hole for now. Drill a 5/16” hole for the upper left
anchoring point. Insert the bolt and tighten both
hand-tight. Thread on the lower tube on foot plate.
Adding a NATO-Style Front-Corner Machine Gun Mount
(Silver Goose: The Eastern Block)
Next, install the upper tube so it fits up to the lower
portion and square everything. Mark and drill the
upper plate holes and remove the tube and paper.
Clean up the holes and touch up with some paint
to prevent rust. Some silicone sealant keeps out
water on the top plate. Fit everything together and
check that everything is square and snug.
Re-tighten all bolts and you’re done.

What in the World is a Pintle? Or Pintle-Mount?
• Used with Mounting Hardware that Mates the Machine Gun
to a Vehicle or Tripod
• Essentially the Pintle is a Bracket with a Cylindrical Bottom
and a Cradle for the Gun on Top
• Cylindrical Bottom Fits into Hole in the Tripod, while Cradle
Holds the Gun
• Pintle Can Also Be Used to Refer to the Pin or Bolt Usually
Inserted into a Gudgeon, which Is Used as Part of a Pivot
or Hinge
• Machine Guns Usually Mounted on Pintle Mount
– Pintle Mount Is Steel Post Connected to the Frame
A pintle is used to adapt the machine gun cradle
to the machine gun mount (steel pipe).

Ammo Canisters vs. Panniers
(Silver Goose @ http://www.silvergoosestore.biz,
and Bill Glaser @ http://myural.com/ural_accessories.htm)
Contrary to popular myth, panniers are not ammo boxes.
Ammo might have been carried in them, but they were not
designed with that purpose in mind. These are general
purpose panniers for tools, parts, vodka, etc. Panniers
are available through European vendors. IMWA
(Irbit MotorWorks of America) sells a modernized
version of these through their dealer network. Most are
new-made copies, not NOS (new old stock).

Pannier is derived from the old French “panier,” meaning
basket for bread. A Pannier is either of a pair of bags or
boxes attached to the sides of the motorcycle or
sidecar and is used to carry gear, clothes or tools.
Dnepr MW-750 (MB-750) and MW-650 (MB-650)
The mounting frame is bolted to the sidecar body
and the pannier is then attached to the frame
using the traditional spring loaded rotating handles.

Ural Gear-Up
Being smaller, but more maneuverable than any army jeep,
Gear-Up is effective for task force missions, particularly in
tight city blocks. The crew of the motorcycle may include
two or three people, including the driver.

is one more arms type you can use with the Gear-Up. The AGS-17
(Avtomatischeskyi Granatmyot Stankovyi) Automatic Grenade Launcher
is a heavy infantry support weapon designed to operate from a
tripod or mounted on a vehicle. The AGS-17 fires a steady rate of 30mm
grenades to provide suppressive and lethal fire.
Fitted with KONKURS or FAGOT 9K113 Type Anti-Tank Rocket
Gear-Up motorcycles can be effectively used as anti-tank
weapons. The targeting ability of anti-tank rockets
launched at ground and low-flying aircraft from the sidecar
fender is better than 90% at a distance of 4,000 meters.
FAGOT 9K113 Type Anti-Tank Rocket on the Ural Gear-Up

Black-Out Lights for Russian Motorcycles
• What are Black-Out Lights?
• Blackout Lights Used for Combat Operations
– When a Convoy of Military Vehicles Moves at Night
– When There Are Enemy Aircraft in the Sky
– Not Visible to Distant Enemy
– Allows Motorcycle Rider to Operate in Total Darkness
– Provides Minimum Lighting
to Show Position to Leading
or Trailing Vehicle
• Because Light Covers Are Changed
Manually from “Normal” to “Black-out,”
the Driver Can’t Accidentally Reveal
His Location
Note: Not for Road Use!
Blackout lighting cannot be easily seen from
above, yet provides just enough light so that
you can follow the vehicle directly in front.

The metallic blackout driving light was designed to provide
a white light of 25 to 50 candlepower at a distance
of 10 feet directly in front of the light. The light is shielded
so that the top of the low beam is directed at least
2 degrees below the horizon. The beam distribution
on a level road at 100 ft from the light is 30 ft wide.

Driving Lights and Spot-Lights
• Generator/Alternator Limitations on Lighting
– Limited Output at Rated RPM
– Limited Output when Idling
• Spot-Light Mounted in Machine Gun Receiver
• Silver Goose Spot-Lights
• Driving and Fog Lights
• Extra Lighting Needs Relay Control and Wiring
– Handlebar Switches Aren’t Made to Handle Increased Current
– Wire and Fuses Aren’t Meant to Handle Increased Current
• Many Lighting Products Are Not D.O.T. Approved
– For "off-road or competition"
Most folks scan their JC Whitney or KC catalog for
spot lights, driving lights and fog lights. For good-looking
military solutions, it is recommended to check with
the Ural people, Silver Goose, Raceway Services, etc.

When considering adding a spotlight or driving lights,
one look at the generator/alternator. Not until the
short-lived Hitachi or the questionable 14.3771
was there enough extra current for more lighting.

Their heavy-duty light kits are needed to hook extra lights.
The two heavy duty relays are actuated by signals from
the headlight and power comes from the sidecar
fuse box or dedicated line to the battery. You
can’t just wire it in parallel with the headlight.
Spotlight Installation (silver goose)
•
Mounting the Light
– Most Important Part Is Positioning the Light
• If Windshield Present or Planned, Place Spotlight Front Enough to Clear it when
Windshield Is All the Way Forward
• About 2 1/2 inches between Back of Spotlight Base and Apron Loop
– After Marking where you want the light
• Center-Punch and Cut Center Hole of 5/8” to 1” to Clear the Nut and Allow for
Wiring
• Recommended Hole-Saw because Large Drills Bits Have Tendency to Grab when
Going thru Sheet Metal
– When Center hole Is Cut
• Position and Square-Up Base
• Mark Bolt Holes with Scratch-Awl and Set Spotlight Aside
– Center Punch the Markings
• Pilot-Drill with a 1/8” Twist-Drill
• Drill with 5/16” Twist-Drill
• De-bur Inside and Out
•
– Bead of Silicone-Sealant Around Center-Hole Recommended
– Thread Wiring Thru and Set Spotlight in position
– Bolt Up Base to Hack Tub and Tighten Nuts
Electrical
– The Push-In terminal can be connected to a spare on the fuse block in the
hack tub. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A 15 OR 20 AMP FUSE INSTALLED.
We have broken down the parts into bite-size chunks.

Ural offers the standard spotlight kit.
Hi/Lo Spotlight on Sidecar (f2motorcycles)
F2motorcycles offers an additional light on the nearside
front of the sidecar. This is connected to the original
Headlight and has both low and high beam and doesn’t
need to be operated separately using additional switches.
Although the sidecar has a small white light on the
mudguard, this additional hi/lo light makes it easier
for on coming traffic to judge the width of the bike.

Entrenching Shovel (http://myural.com/ural_accessories.htm)
Shovel mounts are another item that is getting harder
to find. The Russian Spetsnatz shovel is not easily come
across either. Cold Steel makes a copy which is actually
much better quality than the original.
Engineer Shovel (http://myural.com/ural_accessories.htm)
The engineer shovel uses the same mounts as the
entrenching shovel. They are easier and cheaper to find.
It is mounted horizontally along the left side of the hack.

The Special Forces Shovel is modeled after the original
Soviet Spetznaz shovel. The Spetznaz soldiers made up
the most elite unit in the Soviet Army. The shovel head
and socket are forged from medium carbon steel, then
heat treated for maximum strength.
