Well, it would be nice to see the weights of the bolts compared too.//getting lost to the sidetracks... but does it really? MG42 is over two times heavier than AVT-40 and allthough it has faster rate of fire, the weight will somewhat compensate it.
The MG-42's bolt is rather light (for a machinegun), now compare it to the chunk of metal that moves on the SVT-40.
Chances are high that the AVT-40 actually would have more recoil, given the weight of the moving parts compared to the weight of the weapon.
