RARE MG-15 LOADER FOR SADDLE DRUMS AND CARRIER WITH 4 MG-15 SADDLE DRUMS AND CARRIER.Extremely scarce and useful loading machine frame with mechanisms and wrenches for winding and loading the MG-15 saddle drums. This consists of a wooden relief cut base plate that the double drum magazine (included) fits into and a spring and ratchet winder which progressively winds both chambers of the saddle drum simultaneously and greatly eases the loading process. Also included are 2 of the individual "T" style loading wrenches plus a hollow metal shaft, which keeps the 2 together for storage. In addition is 1 standard orig MG-15 3 drum carrier which allows for the easy transportation of these drums, complete with three MG 15 75 round saddle drum magazines with various LWaA markings. All mechanism parts and catches appear to be fully operational and serviceable. SIZE: PROVENANCE: Collection of Dr. Geoffrey Sturgess. CONDITION: Extremely fine, near excellent, orig black finish on all drums, 2 of which have leather straps and the other 2 have web straps. All are maker marked in the WWII era with Flieger numbers and Luftwaffe inspection marks. Wooden loading block in orig green paint with some scratches, dings and handling marks but completely serviceable. These accessories are very rare and this is a dream come true for a fortunate owner of a MG-15. 43475-1117 JWK65 (2,500-3,500)
