C&R Hotchkiss 1914 for Trade/Sale

Recommended Posts

Hello, 

I'm asking 16.5k for the Hotchkiss but I'm open to partial trades. I'm interested in Sten guns, a Boys AT rifle (preferably in .50) or a Semi-Auto STG44 + cash, or any other weird interwar SMGs

The Hotchkiss is currently privately owned in Pennsylvania on a form 4. I'm willing to have the gun shipped but buyer pays shipping. 

About the gun;

It's a C&R 1917 dated gun, the barrel does not match but the barrel is not "N" marked and the sights have not been updated for "N" ammunition either, leaving it in the WW1 configuration. I had a ejector machined, copying an original. The bolt was lightly deactivated at some point but I modified a Hotchkiss portative extractor and cut down a spring to fit. Currently, it does shoot and I can send videos of it doing so, it just likes lubricated ammo. The tripod is a The U.S. Standard Parts Co model of 1916 ground mount/ Cleveland mount. the locking wedges on the mount do work but there are no retaining pins for them. Two extra triggers are included, several 24 round stripper clips for the gun and a lighter recoil spring I used to bring the rate of fire very low - it helped with the cost of 8mm Lebel. I also have tons of lebel brass, if you'd like it. 

 

The Hotchkiss is great fun to shoot but I prefer my Maxims

Feel free to reach out on here with any questions!
