Hi all,

Not German machinegun but.... :roll: Does somebody have any idea about this Swedish quad machinegun mount.
According to photo caption kulsprutegevär m/37 and the image is dated c1930. This seems obviously wrong....

Hi audrew,

It seems that match with my image...
There are not much information about this machinegun on the net. It seems that Vickers class E was the commercial (export) designation for Vickers Mk.II, III and V machineguns...Was this model the standard British aerial machinegun during 1920s ?
