Vickers MG videos and info

[Richard Fisher]

"Patreon is the last refuge of a scoundrel" Just kidding!

S.A.C. Minutes would be worth paying for; what year do your holdings start?

We have 1900 to 1938 (excluding 1902 just now but that should be sorted next week). This is the entire period of the 'modern' Small Arms Committee. We're then moving on to the Ordnance Board memoranda to cover the Second World War developments. A copy of the index we've built (which is fascinating in itself) is here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/40900032

Patreon is being good to us at the moment. It gives us some secure storage for all of this info and has started to build a community that can support the Association to do more interesting work. We're a not-for-profit and largely funded from donations and occasional consultancy work at the moment. We'd usually be having those donations through visits and firing demonstrations but the current pandemic limits us doing that sadly.

Patreon isn't our last refuge, but it is our latest. The Vickers MG website has been online since 1999 now so many would have said the same when I first wrote it 21 years ago.

Thanks for your support.
