This is a Browning 1919A4 out for it's first field test.
The testing shown was using .308 caliber and IMI metal links. The second test (no video) was done in the 1919's original design of .30-06 caliber and ran equally as well on metal links and cloth belts.
I tried to get a lower firing-point-of-view behind the gun, but the camera tripod would not go any lower. Oh well, enjoy the video. More to come soon.

  • @C2builder ive been watching some of your other videos and im curious if i get all of the official paper work and stuff because im a u.s. citizen how much money would it cost to get a vickers machine gun off of you? thanks

  • @tk42295 A transferable Vickers machine gun is priced at around $25,000. The tripod mount, ammo belt and can is another $1,000.

  • Ok, what all changes would need to be done in order to convert it to semi auto?

  • @jonijenny1 I only build full-auto, so you would need to ask that question elsewhere. All I know is that you have to use a thicker right-hand side plate and modify the bolt and trigger. Good luck.

  • @C2builder you build your own? that's cool. Not to be nossy, but about how much can you build then for. Thanks

  • @MrBobsrevenge Really can't say because it depends on if it's going to be built as a Post Sales Sample or built on a transferable side plate. The prices vary, but just to give you an idea a transferable 1919A4 is around $12,000US.

  • WHERE DID YOU GET THIS THINK?

  • that's more accurate than i expected

  • I WANT YOUR JOB

  • @isuckaman The barrel change of an MG42 takes about 4-5 seconds...Really! Look it up, you'll find it on youtube!

  • Is the barrel overheating at the end of the video? I saw some steam.

  • @isuckaman did the 1919 have a changeable barrel?

  • @Lwis2 I'd hate to be anyone facing a gun..

  • Just because the MG-42 had a higher rate of fire doesn't mean it was a better gun than this one. When you factor in the time it took to change the barrel on an MG-42 the difference in the rate of fire is reduced. I know; that's no consolation to the guys who landed at Omaha Beach,

  • i'd hate to be a Japanese soldier facing one of these.........

  • I Love this gun!!!
