Thank you very much for the link, Markus... :wink:

Which is the origin of the Maxim-Vickers mod.1911 machinegun in Italian use ? :?
According to audrew, Italian Army adopted first the Maxim M1906 and then, in 1914, the FIAT-Revelli Mod.1914....

I'd say PPD-34. The jacket holes in the centre gun seem circular; Optical illusion?
