INERT DEACTIVATED. The HS.404 is a cannon was originally designed and produced by Spanish/French company Hispano-Suiza in the mid-1930s. The guns also referred to as Birkigt type 404, after its designer Marc Birkigt and later versions based on British development are known as 20 mm Hispano. In 1938, an aircraft based version of the HS.404 was produced at the request of the French government which was installed on a wide range of pre-war French fighter aircraft, notably in installations firing through the propeller shaft of the Hispano-Suiza 12Y engine. The HS.404 was fed by drum magazines which held 60 rounds of ammunition. Later on in 1940, the HS404 cannon was adopted by the Royal Air Force and entered service arming the Bristol Beaufighter and the Westland Whirlwind which carried 4 of the guns internally. The gun was also used in Spitfires in the Battle of Britain. 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.

INERT DEACTIVATED. This is an extremely rare British WW2, 1842 dated fired case from the trials of an experimental gun produced by British Manufacture and Research Co Ltd based at Grantham (BMARC). The gun was proposed by the company in late 1941 based on the 20mm HS404 Hispano cannon for anti tank and anti submarine use. there was no requirement for the gun so the company went ahead with the experimental gun as a private venture. The company were unable to manufacture its own ammunition and a request for the Ordnance factories to manufacture it was refused by the controller of Research and Production of MAP. For an unknown reason, the Minister overruled the decision and a small quantity of ammunition was made by the Royal Laboratories in 1942. The gun proved most unsuccessful in its development and the trials were abandoned in1945 at the end of the war. Nothing was heard of this cartridge case (30x170) until the 1980s when the Royal Small Arms Factory adopted the cartridge case dimensions for their successful 30mm Rarden cannon used in British armoured vehicles. This is a fired brass cartridge case from the first lot produced for the trials with the gun in 1942. The cartridge case is headstamped 30MM LOT1 a crowfoot G777 1942 (date) RLB (Royal Laboratories). The cartridge case is screwed for a percussion primer and has 4 stab crimps round the case mouth.
