  • The Hotchkiss Portable MG, also known as the Bénet-Mercié in the USA, was a light machine gun fitted to the Mk 5 tank during the last year of WW1. In tank use it fired the .303 cartridge. Because of the restricted space, the 30 round strip magazine was replaced by a 50 round linked belt.

      I've never seen a rotating chamber period. It seems needless complexity, and yes i understand that at the point of this weapon's creation they were still experimenting with crazy interesting actions. That being said, wholly crap that seems like a long way to go to lock you're weapon into battery.

      It's called the Fermature Nut system. The bolt and barrel don't Rotate, but a connecting sleeve (" nut" rotates to lock the interrupted bolt thread to the barrel. This nut is cammed by the bolt- carrier- gas piston rod.

    Thanks for the video, is excellent. This was one of the machine guns used by Peruvin Army during the short war against Ecuador in 1941. But the one used there was a little different, without the prominent arming lever and with a pistol grip, and retaining the metal strip. I also saw a double naval mount during WWII. May I ask why jit was considered a complicated weapon, unable to be used by night? Once again, thanks and Cheers.

  • @tiortedrootsky

    The left side part of the leaf spring up top prevents the strip from going back, but it seems that it goes up at the same time as the leaver that moves the strip.
    Can the lever have enough friction with the strip to push it back when trying to go above it to the next notch?

    When you consider how early this gun is, its a fairly good design. Sure, a box magazine would be much better than the feed strips, but this gun is from a time when industry could not easily supply that number of magazines.

    • @anthonyhayes1267
      @anthonyhayes1267 3 роки тому +1

      If I recall correctly, the feed strip is made in just a single stamping motion. That's one hell of a selling point.
