Project Description
!!!!!SOLD!!!!! Although at first glance this might look like a Tippmann 1/2 scale .22 long rifle rimfire caliber Browning Model 1919 A4 air cooled machine gun, it is actually a non-functional Chinese made model. These came into the country about 20 years ago, and I remember buying them when I worked for Imperial Miniature Armory. There were some other models also like a Maxim, a 1917 water cooled Browning .30 caliber, and a M2-HB “Ma Deuce” .50 caliber. 24″ long overall including the tripod and 12 1/2″ wide at the rear of the tripod. The gun itself is 20 1/2″ long including the pistol grip, the barrel is 11 1/2″ long with a .334″ bore. All steel construction except for the two piece wood grips. This model looks really good on the outside. The sights, the tripod, and the traverse & elevation mechanisms are really well made and accurate. The down side is there are no internal parts. The top cover doesn’t even open. This is new in the original cardboard box with the original Styrofoam calm shell protective inserts. It still has the original protective film of oil on it! Includes a cloth cartridge belt with five solid brass dummy cartridges for display purposes. No markings except for a Made in China sticker on the lower rear of the receiver. Mint new condition. Makes a nice decoration in the gun room if you can’t afford a $7K Tippmann!!!! !!!!!SOLD!!!!!
