A Lewis gun?




Tankerace -> RE: Name That (9) ;-) (10/15/2004 11:13:05 PM)

Yep. Lewis .303. With the mounting, I think its for a rear gunner in a plane. Or maybe like an SE5a or something.




Feinder -> RE: Name That (9) ;-) (10/15/2004 11:16:55 PM)

They were still mounting Lewis guns on planes, even in WW2 (ex. the Blenheim series). A rather enduring design (the Lewis gun, not the Blenheim... [;)])

-F-




Brady -> RE: Name That (9) ;-) (10/16/2004 1:10:59 AM)

7.7mm Type 92.

Yes.
"Derived from the British Lewis machine-gun, this flexible weapon used flat drum magazines with a capacity of either 47 or 97 rounds. ..." source: Japanese Aircraft of the Pacific War by René J Francillon
It was for example mounted in the Vals und Kates.
