Acme Sports Inc. Posted April 23, 2021 Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 Hi all, I have attached pics of some parts and tools I have and need to get a positive ID on them. I have an MG08/15 but these parts seem a bit different that what is on the gun, so maybe vickers? Any help is appreciated. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron in Mohnton Pa Posted April 23, 2021 Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 (edited) Picture 6 is a MG08/15 browning Pintle adapter. A standard browning Pintle bolts to it to allow the gun to be used in American tripods / pedestals etc Aaron - Mohnton, Pa Edited April 23, 2021 by Aaron in Mohnton Pa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OUTDOORDAVE Posted May 26, 2021 Report Share Posted May 26, 2021 Vickers parts/ tools: The wrench is the early type with square end (used on the early muzzle caps). The T handle and adjacent large pin are used on the spade grip assembly. The top firing pin is a type 2. Bottom firing pin is for a Maxim but I don't recall which one. I'd have to look through the Devils Paintbrush. The top spring is for a Vickers - bottom is either Maxim or Vickers depending on the length of the legs. The adapter looks to be for mounting a ZF12 (German) or similar optic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnd.bush Posted May 26, 2021 Report Share Posted May 26, 2021 The t handled item on the bottom right is for mounting the British ANM2 in the aircraft mount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
