Original Lewis & Vickers Machine Gun Crates

Just uncovered from long-term storage in our gun room, acquired over the past 50 to 60 years.

Original Lewis and Vickers machine-gun transit cases. Designed and constructed by the British ordnance and made to exacting standards, to suffer the vagaries and exertions of wartime combat on the front line, and storage of machine guns for up to, and over, 100 years. Solid wood with all metal edge strengthening supports. They were designed to be thrown around and heavily manhandled on the backs of army trucks, tanks, and armoured vehicles in combat war situations, even to be dropped out of planes for arms supply drops behind enemy lines, they are incredibly strong.

Beautifully designed constructed and perfect for storage, and historical collectors. Also absolutely ideal for a deactivated Lewis or Vickers machine gun collectors to complete historical display.

They are simply incredible value probably couldn’t be made for 10 times the price. Call 07721 010085. We have seen these sell for over £200 each in the past, when they have been rarely available
