BRDM Driver Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Does anyone have a picture of the co-ax GPMG mount for the Scorpion showing the firing solenoid? I have the mount in mine with the Heath-Robinson cocking handle (made from a drawer slider, some steel cable and an old clock spring), it also has the remote trigger but I can't see where a solenoid would even fit. I came across a mount with a solenoid on at the Cobbaton clear out, but it didn't look like it would fit to my mount. Nothing is shown in the parts list.

BRDM Driver Posted May 22, 2013 Author Share Posted May 22, 2013 Found it in pamphlet no. 24, basically it is part of GPMG rather than part of the mount so whatever that was at Cobbaton, it wasn't a Scorpion GPMG solenoid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasshopper Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 There was a thread way back about GPMGs- the variant for the Scorpion was unique in that (I think) it was the only one that could be fitted with a solenoid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
