American McDonald Phantom 20mm Aircraft Gun Ammunition Flexible Feed For The M61 Vulcan Gun. - MISC 912 This is a 20mm aircraft machine gun flexible ammunition feed that feeds ammunition from the ammunition trough to the machine gun that was probably fitted to a McDonald Phantom Aircraft M61Vulcan multi barrelled gun. The feeder needs to be flexible and durable and this one is made up of individual articulated stainless steel sections with pressed steel ends, one to attach to the gun and the other to attach to the ammunition trough. The feed measures 2 feet in length and can be almost bent into a full circle and bent sideways about 30 degrees sideways in either direction. The feeder can also be twisted 90 degrees round its axis. One pressed steel end is stamped EEP 90 in an oval and engraved BA9.97.1207 ISS2C JULY 1974. This feed strip would have probably been used by the McDonald Phantom aircraft The price includes U.K. delivery. MISC 912 £375.00 |

1950’s RAF-issue Type –G sunglasses and Case. 19640. - 19640 Introduced in the 1950’s, these are very similar to the standard WWII issue Mk.VIII glasses. They are in a blue anodised aluminium case marked with the store reference; 22G/1399 Type G Large. It also carries the War Department's crow's foot symbol. Inside the case is a blue velvet insert, and the name ‘N.A.T.S. T.R.Gregory 23 Cadet’ is on a tag inside of the lid. The glasses themselves have a gold-coloured frame with flat side-arms (to facilitate wearing a gas mask?) and the ear-pieces are of a very flexible, sprung design that hooks all the way around the ear, so they are tightly-retained during flight. The lenses are glass and have no scratches or defects that I can see, and overall, they are in great condition, considering their age. The case, as you would expect, has some scratches and the edge of the lining is coming loose, but is also in good condition. A great piece of history for the enthusiast’s collection. The price includes UK delivery. 19640. (Handcuffs) £275.00 |
