SOLD SOLD (LAY-AWAY 29/03) British, Vickers K Gun, Gas Operated (VGO) 100 Round Drum Magazine for Royal Air Force Aircraft and Long Range Desert Group Vehicles. Sn - 22527 The Vickers K Gun, Gas Operated (VGO) machine gun was developed by Vickers Armstrong as a development of the Vickers Berthier light machine gun. This gun was further developed by Vickers with a faster rate of fire and reliability into an aircraft gun for gunners and observers in the biplane era. With the advent of the belt fed .303 Browning machine gun, the Vickers K gun was relegated for use with a few exceptions in the Fleet Air Arm aircraft and the guns became surplus. With the advent of the Long Range Desert Group (LRDG), they needed a lightweight machine gun and the Vickers K gun was used extensively in single and twin pintle mounting sometimes with a .5 Browning for effect. This is an excellent Vickers K gun 100 round magazine that is in excellent condition and would appear to have been made for land use with a khaki webbing carrying handle which replaced the leather handle. The bottom part of the magazine retains its original grey painted finish and the top appears to be a matt black blued finish. The magazine is free from any knocks or bumps and the webbing carrying handle is in good condition. The price for this scarce drum magazine includes U.K delivery. Sn 22527 £0.00 |
