Production:
There were many small supplier companies, but they were not responsible for assembly.
The four main production and assembly sites in the German Reich were:
- from 1936 to 1943, the "Berliner-Suhler / Gustloff Werke" in Suhl.
- from 1938 to 42, the "Mauser Werke" in Borsigwalde.
- 1938 to 43 Rheinmetall - Maget, Berlin-Tegel.
- from 1941 to 45 "Waffenwerke Brünn" in Czechoslovakia.
- In Austria, "Steyr-Daimler-Puch AG" estimated total production at 7,000 MG34.
The "official" total number of MG34s produced during the war has been estimated at around 500,000.
