FW, the Panzer VI e Pack works with both the Steel Panzer 1.4 and unofficial 1.5 as I have it installed on all my versions and it works fine as long as you enable it last in your JSGME. It should work without problems with the official SP 1.5 as well as long as you enable it last.
The MG you fired with the Bundeswehr is the G3 which is the direct descendant of the MG42.Just a little bit modernised.BTW the American post war M60 MG also uses the MG42 features as the Americans were very impressed by it's deadly efficiency.
Cheers
