neil0841 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 I wonder if anyone can help? A few weeks ago I acquired a deactivated Browning 0.5 cal MG for use on my MV however it is missing a front sight hood. Firstly, if anyone has any leads on where I might buy one, I’d be grateful for any information. However, given it might take me a while to find a genuine one, I thought that in the interim I might make one. Would anybody be prepared to supply me with the basic measurements for the front sight hood? I can gauge some of them from the front sight mounting point, however the height of the hood especially would be useful to know. And lastly.. anyone know a good (and hopefully) cheap source of inert 0.5cal belt ammunition? See attached for the part I am talking about.. Any help much appreciated..

Stanleyrf89 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Drop Zone have the hoods for sale on eBay http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=321674846715&globalID=EBAY-GB - they also need 2 pins that secure them to the receiver, but those you can manufacture out of suitable gauge wire if you don't have them.
