Browning 30 Cal. 1919
 

Gentlemen......been a while. Helping a friend sell some inventory in the Toronto area. A really nicely dewated Browning 1919. Superb deactivation. Can be stripped down and reassembled (remove grip, bolt cocking handle etc.) Cock and click and can recycle rounds through the chamber area when you cock it. You get....complete 1919 Browning, original tripod dated 1942, original canvas cover, Technical user manual, History book on all Browning MG'S, one wooden carrying box (not original by the looks) 3 ammo cans with linked ammo (several hundred rounds). The unit has a bit of unique history. It was manufactured and stamped "1917 Aircraft" but when WW11 started in was restamped 1919 and XXXXX over top of the word "Aircraft". Bit of nostalgia. PRICE: $6000.00 and for sale only in Canada. PM me for photos if interested......Robert

Hello Robert, do you still have for sale the 1919 Browning.

Sorry Stevie......
 

Sorry Stevie.....that unit sold a while ago. Extremely nice unit and well worth the coin. It was sold 2 weeks after I got it into my hands.

I'll make a couple of phone calls for you. Robert

Possibility.....
 

Stevie: Call Poco Surplus in Langley BC. They have one for sale (Canada Only). Don't know if it's quite what your looking for, but as the old saying goes "something is better than nothing". They do have a web site which you can check it out under deactivated weapons. Their number's on the web site. Ask for Logan. I talked to him to make sure they still had it.

AND......if anyone out there thought my L1A1 for sale on this forum was not a good deal.....check out the 2 they have for sale. Cheers and good luck Stevie....Robert

Interesting that one of the semi autos got deactivated.
I see 4 various versions of the 1919 for sale at collectors source ranging from 2995 to 5995.

Don't shoot the messenger!
 

Hey Mike: Simply trying to help a guy out. Not my weapon or do I have an association with the business. Stevie is a BIG BOY and he can decide for himself. Simple....as....that! Robert
