The cocking studs on the real 50 and the 30 are the same basic diameter These training aids are much larger. Same with the dummy rounds.....closer to a 20mm than a 50 I believe but would have to mic them to be certain.
Resist the urge to cock it using your finger in the cocking handle hole. I did that once and when the accelerator snapped it opened up the tip of my index finger and bled like a stuffed pig.

I knew the cocking studs were the same size as we learned the .30 cal could be turned end for end to replace a .50 stud... Just wondering if the assist handle could work for cocking this cutaway.

That one I just couldn't tell. Maybe I should get the ones at Collectorsource for my collection after all.

Careful...buying those dummy rounds will lead to you buying the first available double size training aids. Those will end up being the most expensive dummys you will ever buy.
Electing dummys can also be quite expensive, but I digress.....

I know, I've bought a rifle because I had the bayonet...

I have bought military vehicles because I had the manual. I take it as a sign that I already have the manual, and therefore.....
I still have a Centurion manual on the shelf that is, as of yet, unused by me. If I had any brains I would burn it.

Could be worse, you could stumble across the user manual for a B17...one of the guys here showed us his.
