Unidentified weapon part?

**RRPG** · 06-23-2015 05:00 AM

Hi All

Following on from my recent posts regarding the relics I have been recovering from a British icon

army dump, this item also came out of the ground and is eluding identification. As a consequence, I thought I would ask here, see if anyone recognises it.

Seems to have a pattern number on it that indicates a weapon part, but I just can't track it down, despite digging through scores of pictures of stripped down weapons.

If you recognise it, please let me know! It measures about 3 inches across at its widest point.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

I don't have a definitive answer but it looks like an adjustable pawl for a ratchet on some machine. If it is military, perhaps an artillery piece or a winch? Wild guess at best. Tom

Energa grenade launcher thing for a No1 rifle

WOW! Thanks Peter. Don't suppose you have a picture of one do you? Searched the net and can't find one......
