WW2 1944 Hispano HS 804 20mm Cannon Recovered from De Havilland Mosquito HX862 on Drum near Conwy, Wales. D 5994 - D 5994
The British 20mm Hispano-Suiza (20x110) HS 404 aircraft cannon which first entered service experimentally in the Battle of Britain in 1940 arming several Supermarine Spitfires and also in the Bristol Beaufighter which carried 4 of the guns internally. The gun however with its original 60 round drum feed although very effective in combat was mechanically unreliable. The gun was later modified to a belt feed which was reliable and served in many aircraft throughout WW2 including the Supermarine Spitfire, Hawker Hurricane, Westland Whirlwind, Bristol Beaufighter, Hawker Typhoon and Tempest as standard equipment or an upgrade of the Browning .303 machine gun as an effective hard hitting gun. This is a sectioned 20mm Hispano HS804 Mark 5 aircraft cannon that was recovered in 1970 from the hills at Drum near Conwy in North Wales from a De Havilland Mosquito mark VI Fighter Bomber HX842. The aircraft originally carried 4 of these cannons and was belt fed with its ammunition. The aircraft was with Number 60 OUT (Operational Training Unit) RAF as a night fighter aircraft on a night intruder exercise from RAF High Ercall in Shropshire as part of their night fighting course. Their briefed route took them towards Prestatyn at 3000 feet and then north west across the Irish Sea at 500 feet. This first leg pf the journey was at 3000 feet to clear the hills near Conwy before descending to the Irish Sea. The aircraft for some reason was flying at about 2300 feet and collided with the summit of the Carneddau mountains at Drem near Conwy at that height. The aircraft was completely destroyed and later that morning the wreckage was found and the pilot and navigators bodies were recovered. This cannon was recovered in 1970 from the crash site and has subsequently been deactivated for display. The cannon has had sections taken out of it to show the inner workings, the sectioned parts being painted in red. The cannon measures 68 inches long is mounted on a wooden display board complete with an inert 20mm HS804 round for display. The price for this very rare WW2 De Havilland Mosquito 20mm Hispano HS 804 cannon includes deactivation certificate & UK delivery. D 5994

SOLD SOLD (LAY-AWAY 12/03/26) SKN, Instructional Sectioned, Bren Mk IM .303 Calibre Light Machine Gun. Cocks and Dry Fires D 6051 - D 6051
The British Bren Light Machine Gun was introduced in the 1930's and used extensively by British & Allied Forces throughout WW2. Bren Guns were produced predominantly in Britain, Australia & Canada. This is a scarce Bren gun produced by MOD armourers at SKN to produce an instructional action. These actions were manufactured between 1948 & 1950 utilising components from out of service Bren guns. Quite a number of skeleton actions were assembled by the Gun trade and by REME workshops, but these lack the official SKN number on the breech of the action body. The contract was originally given to ROF Enfield, but following legal action involving the alleged un-licensed Government manufacture of the L2 Sterling SMG, manufacture was given instead to Sterling Engineering as part of the legal settlement. Sterling then sub-contracted the work to List Engineering of Dagenham, which completed SKN's returned to ROF Enfield for inspection and service acceptance. This example is stamped with the correct SKN designation. The term SKN or Sectionalised refers to Bren guns that were cut away to show their internal mechanisms. These were produced by MOD armourers as training aids (or for display, sometimes referred to as Boardroom models) to demonstrate to recruits how the gun operated and was maintained. This is an excellent WW2.303 Calibre MK I Bren light machine gun. The Bren Mk.1M was the Canadian made version, with simplified non-telescoping bipod legs simplified butt without shoulder rest and butt plate buffer. The Bren parts were extensively cut away to show the working parts including the breech, action, recoil and gas operations. The frame is stamped with the correct SKN designation on the right side BREN MK 1M indicating a Canadian manufacture and SKN 3782 on the top of the breech behind the magazine. Bren gun is fitted with the folding cocking lever and has the drum elevation rear sight. The Bren gun is complete with its folding bi pod, adjustable rear sight & original sectioned box magazine containing dummy rounds. The gun has excellent wood work and the metal retains much of its original blued finish. SKN made 'guns' were never issued as functioning firearms and do not require a deactivation certificate within the UK. Nevertheless it has been examined and D.A. stamped at the Birmingham Proof House. All the parts move to show how it functions and it cocks / dry fires. This is a rare example. The price includes UK delivery. D 6051
