Staghound's questions

Hi,

1) Re: Staghound's standard M1919A4 anti-aircraft gun mount
I have compared some T.M. photos and WW2 photos. There were at least 3 different types of AA machine gun mount on Staghound turret. Does anyone know which one was the standard gun mount ?

2) I need interior photo for the gun sight window of 37mm gun. Can anyone help ?

Thanks in advance

See attached photo showing the standard Staghound .30 turret mount.
It has two operating levers (one is missing on the photo).
Can anyone tell what the function was from the second lever?

Kurtis,

I can't get in the corner to take a photo from the left side, there just is no room there.

Hi Marco,

I understand that it is very difficult to take photo from the left side of the turret. Thats why I never seen a picture from book, magazine or web. I think it is very similar to M3 Lee structure.

Anyway, thank you very much.

Have a good day.

Best regards,
Kurtis

Hi Marco,

Sorry for bother again. Can you please provide one more photo showing above the periscope M4 ? As the .30cal ammo box covered that portion. Thanks in advice.
