Description:

Manufactured by Rapid Fire of Troy, Ohio as a semi-automatic reproduction of the famous Browning 1919 Machine Gun. Combination quick-detach base and ammo can carrier has been mounted in the pintle position, with a standard ammo can on the left side and a can folded and welded to serve as a belt/link catcher on the right (lids not included). A crank-operated speed firing mechanism is mounted to the conventional rear grip. Included with the lot is a folding tripod field mount with 360 degree traverse and screw-action elevation (compatible with the mount assembly on the 1919), two each of canvas ammunition belts, a large number of disintegrating metal belt links, a large Gun Guard brand case and a soft canvas bag.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, with 95% plus original matte gray finish, showing some minor handling marks overall. The right-side ammo can is adorned with some bumper stickers, and both cans are without lids. There is some play in the connection between the rifle and the tripod, but the mount is generally solid and the tripod is in good order. Mechanically the item is in very good condition in both manual and crank-operated modes.
