MG08 in the Science Museum, Oklahoma City, OK

Post by dwmmg08 »

These are some pictures of the MG08 currently held in the aviation gallery of the Science Museum, (The Omniplex) in Oklahoma City, OK. I hope everyone enjoys the pictures! I was most interested in the fact it's a clear late war gun, with a late type sled; but while we got to mess with it when we set up a WWI display there 15 years ago, it's been messed with by someone who doesn't know what they are doing since then. Note the wing nuts up in the air on the top cover, and the fact that they didn't use the traverse mechanism, which is there, they just pushed it out of the way when they set the gun in the mount.
