Vickers Gas-Operated Machine Gun (the Vickers 'K'): An Overview

An overview of the Vickers GO machine gun. We have the No 1 Mk I in the collection but will give an overview of the No 2 Mk I as well. There was also the No 3, No 4 and No 5 but these were minor variants of the No 1. More information on all of them on the #VickersMG website: https://vickersmg.blog/the-guns/

We also cover the webbing pouches used by the Army Commandos in 1944, the mounting used on Special Air Service jeeps, as well as disassembly and assembly of a gun from the collection.
