Deactivated FN N1939 Aircraft Gun

Rare Deactivated FN N1939 .303 Aircraft Gun. In excellent deactivated condition and complete with belt loader, Belt magazine, empty .303 cartridge belt (all stamped 1939 or before) and the nearly complete tool kit. This was used in the wing of a British Hurricane Fighter in WWII that was then later sold to Portugal. The FN N1939 was specially designed for the Hurricane and was basically a lightened, cold weather adapted copy of the M1919 for aircraft use. The M1919 Browning series of machine guns has been used all over the world, by more than 70 countries, and has been in service from 1919 until the present day. They are able to operate in any conditions and are very strong and reliable weapons. In the 1960s many were where converted to fire 7.62 NATO and these versions are still being used today, mainly on armoured fighting vehicles. Yet another classic from John Moses Browning. All deactivated weapons sold by D and B Militaria are deactivated in the United Kingdom and hold a London or Birmingham proof mark and certificate stating that the weapon has been deactivated correctly and is legal within the U.K.
