Charlton machine gun
I've always been fascinated with the Charlton machine gun as a locally produced weapon to counter the imminent Japanese invasion of this country during WW2 and thought a replica would look pretty good up front in my LP2a.
Unfortunately the carrier has since long gone but I did eventually get around to building my replica. There's still a couple of items to complete, pistol grip etc ,but here she is built on the bones of a 1941 Lithgow SMLE, deactivated. The action works but that's about it. Might have a go at building a gas operated one. David.
