    Well done that. Now you could have some repros made from these salvaged spouts. Bet they'd sell well as I've never seen one.

    water funnels for Browning Model M1917 MGs

    They are quite rare here. Being made of leather they did not last long. Several years ago a member of another forum made up several replicas for those who wanted one.
    I am guessing the 70 odd funnels were part of the accessories provided to the UKicon with watercooled Brownings M1917s in the early part of WWII. We always wondered where they got off to.
