15cwt Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 How do you release the gun elevation lock on the BMP turret gun ?The turret traverse lock is quite easy to find, we just can't find out how to release the gun lock. Thank you in advance for any advice. Gord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 On the OT the lever is immediately in front of the gunner - but that is a totally different turret/mount system. I have the BMP-1 manuals here - give me a couple of days to translate the Russian and I'll see if there are some pictures or photo's I can scan for you.

15cwt Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 Neil Thank you for the reply and no need to go through the manuals. A chum bought a BMP and it arrived at the farm Wednesday morning. We had a run through the fields and dried out the interior, as best we could, then started to check out the interior fitments. He has the manuals on CD and hasn't gotten them printed off. No need for you to burn your valuable time when we have the answer some where. I had hoped it would be a quick and simple thing to explain. Best Reguards Gord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
