This is an excellent example of a fully automatic Class III/NFA, M1919A4 medium machine gun, manufactured and assembled by the RAMO company in Nashville, Tennessee. The 1919 series of machine gun was developed right after WWI and was basically an air cooled version of the water cooled M1917 MG. This weapon design was extremely reliable so much so it was used through out WWII, Korea and even into Vietnam as a secondary medium machine gun. This Browning design was so easy to produce it was later the basis for the famous M2 .50 cal heavy machine gun that is still being used today. This machine gun was assembled using a new side plate manufactured by Ramo combined with some of the parts from a surplus GI parts set that were available in the early 1990s. Currently it is set up with the standard pistol grip back plate. The side plate is marked "SERIAL No. 600067/MACHINE GUN CAL .30 M1919A4/MANUFACTURED BY/RAMO NASHIVILLE, TN./ U.S.A". Some of the various parts/assemblies have visible GI parts numbers and some are unmarked. It is fitted with the original style flip up front sight mounted on the front end of the receiver and the fully adjustable ladder style rear sight mounted on the rear of the receiver that is graduated from 100-2400 meters. This machine gun comes with a large Pelican hard case.

Excellent with 98% of the original factory gray parkerized finish overall showing only minor/light edge wear overall with clear sharp markings. Just add a few accessories and you are ready for the range!!!
