Get a garand and outflank and kill you with ease while you spray wildly from a horribly exposed position, thinking that your invulnerable because you have a MG42.
Easier said then done. Especially since he's on the high ground.
I was pointing out how arrogant he was about it. Arrogant MG gunners are the easiest to kill, always thinking they're unstoppable with one, when its actually both one of the most powerful, and one of the most vulnerable weapons for an infantry man. Its not hard to fix a position of a MG gunner, find their flank, and kill them, since so few bother to pick good beaten grounds, have support, or to change position.
