Regarding the following photo sent by Darrin a day or so ago, exactly what is the machine gun? Wouldn't mind making a replica one.

The frame that the turret sits on doesn't look quite right. Looks like the front 'triangular' frame attaches to the same location on far forward position that the gun is attached to (the location I have circled below).
