It is for the French mg. (French sounding name anyhow) I can't remember the name, but NZ bought quite a few between the wars, hence the mount in the LP2.
Starts with an S or a C, but not the kiwi built .303mg Edit; Ok. then, an "H"

There was the Chauchat, a French LMG that was reputed to be amongst the worst in the world, but I never heard of NZ using them in any quantity. The French Hotchkiss was used in reasonable numbers by NZ forces towards the end of WW1, and likely afterwards.
