**Krummlauf was proposed to be used at MG42, which was bent to 30° in order to shoot from the cover without exposing the operator itself. However, the application of the Krummlauf in MG42 will wear out the barrel life expectancy and considered impractical to be deployed.<ref>[http://www.oocities.org/augusta/8172/panzerfaust5.htm Augusta's article of MG42 in oocities]</ref>

**An exclusive compensator of MG42, which basically a muzzle brake was proposed in 1943. Unlike the standard conical-shaped flash hider, the muzzle brake consists of two baffle plates attached to the recoil intensifier and flash eliminator. The muzzle brake itself was only produced in several numbers and didn't have a deployment record.<ref>[https://www.lonesentry.com/articles/ttt07/mg42-muzzle-brake.html Article of MG42 Muzzle Brake]</ref>

*An attempt to make a machinegun can be fired undercover without exposing the operator has been conducted for MG42 and MG34, which is known as Deckungszielgerät für le. 34 u. 42 Dezetgerät or Undercover Aiming and Firing Device. The device itself consists of an extended linkage firing mechanism that replaces the original pistol grip, 2 mirrors as a standard sighting device, and the shoulder stock.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20120916101343/http://www.lonesentry.com/ordnance/deckungszielgert-fr-le-34-u-42-dezetgert-undercover-aiming-and-firing-apparatus.html Archived article of Trench Device for MG42 in Lone Sentry]</ref>
