Description:

Manufactured as a semi-automatic copy of the venerable U.S. Browning M2 "Ma Deuce" heavy machine gun, chambered for the powerful .50 BMG (12.7x99 mm NATO) cartridge, constructed from a TNW Inc. semi-automatic side plate along with surplus USGI components. Officially adopted by the U.S. military in 1933, the M2 and its sub-variants proved to be some of the prevalent and versatile heavy machine guns in the world, being utilized in a wide range of roles from infantry support, vehicle mounts, ship defense, and even as the armament of aircraft from World War II to the modern day. Features hooded blade front and adjustable folding ladder rear sights installed on the receiver along with mount adapter, a heavy profile barrel installed in a short ventilated heat shield, and hardwood charging handle and spade grips. The right side plate is marked with the TNW Inc. address, model, caliber, and serial number. Includes a green "CAL 50 M3" marked folding tripod, mounting pintle, a traverse and elevation device, timing and head space gauges, and extra heavy profile barrel.

Rating Definition:

Excellent overall as manufactured by TNW Inc., retaining 95% parkerized finish with minor pitting, limited spotting, slight heat discoloration, and limited minor handling marks. The hardwood spade grips are very good with cracking and dents. Mechanically excellent. The tripod is fine as repainted and spare barrel is very fine in grease.
