Itself a copy of the Model 1917 Browning Machine Gun, the 38B was intended for export sale, with customers including Argentina and Norway. Blade front and ladder rear sights, with a set of Colt style markings on the side of the right sideplate and the DLO marking on the underside. The water jacket is full steel construction, with a set of hardwood spade grips and a thumb trigger with manual safety.

Fine, with 60% of the blue finish, showing areas of scattered oxidization, thinning blue on the receiver, a pattern of bright spots on the right sideplate, and scattered handling marks. The grips are good, with some scuffing and chipping. The mechanism is a bit stiff, but appears to be in fine working order.
