Jasonw Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 (edited) I am sure many of you have more experience and info than I have on the subject. I will attach pics of what I believe is a 20 mm breech block from a machine gun, it is new old stock. The only identifying numbers are as follows, c-7306609. Thanks in advance if you can help identify where this comes from. Edited February 19, 2021 by Jasonw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vampyre Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Looks like it belongs to an M2 20mm autocannon. The M2 was used in WWII, notably on the F4U-1C Corsair, B-29 Superfortress, P-38 Lightning and A-1 Skyraider. 1 Truly superior pilots are those that use their superior judgment to avoid those situations where they might have to use their superior skills. If you ever find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck! "If at first you don't succeed, Carrier Landings are not for you!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
