RUSSIAN MAXIM 1910 HELP

Recommended Posts

I'll be doing a 1910 Maxim build (f/a) at some point in the near future and need some help deciding which water jacket style to go with.

So should I go with the conventional fill port -or- go with the larger "snow cap" style of fill port.

Pros and Cons for both?

Thanks in advance.

I have owned several of both and other than the look and ease of filling there is NO advantage. it boils down to personal choice. what look do you prefer? what era fits your collection ? when I started selling all the smooth jacket guns went first, I KEPT 2, both C+R's and TRACTOR FILL. one was built on a captured MG-08 receiver by the RUSSIANS and the other is dated 1943. it is NICE not needing a funnel to fill the gun and I really like FLUTTED JACKETS.
