Reichswehr MG08

[MarkFinneran]

Bob's words on adapted MG08 feedblocks (and price) has ''forced'' me to remind the good membership that I too have some unwanted inter-war MG08 accessories. One complete anti aircraft set up for the sled mount incl its correct bracket, a spare bracket and this converted feedblock. Happy to take comments/trades and will post photos later. 100% German - All are eagle stamped, marked/stamped etc.

Mark, do I get better price the longer I wait? Did George (from NY) buy them?

[MarkFinneran]

All complicated and awaiting response from George R (if the same chap). Also have a between the wars maxim collector on stby but these are hard to find items and would always rather trade.
You have some good items on your for sale list too but I am still seeking specific pieces.

I just made a deal that should land me a feedblock rain cover attachement piece. Most of the cover is gone but that I think can be replaced rather easy. I also got the Anti-Tank gun bipod coming along with a lot of good 08/15 parts.

Some images of the MG08 ''between the wars''
Happy New Year everybody.

[MarkFinneran]

Between the wars drill round - any ideas anybody pse?

[MarkFinneran]

[MarkFinneran]

Another view.

[MarkFinneran]

Still hoping for the id of these rounds. AA pole set up has now gone but I have listed the spare clamp on GB. If anybody has a use for the MG08 converted feedblock as used by the post WWI Belgian Army pse shout.

I'd love to have the converted feedblock, price depending of course! I'll email you about it.

[IMBLITZVT]

Glen, I think Mark is talking about the Red painted one???

[MarkFinneran]

Correct - the feedblock (non-WWI) that is remaining is the Belgian conversion pattern ie originally German MG08 then 'altered'. I will need to find the email that informed me of this so pse don't ask me the calibre!!!
