Hello. I would appreciate any photos that would show the internals (eg cartridge follower) of the ammo hopper on a Type 11. No I do not have any desire to put a fully working one together of course - just my mechanical curiosity on what it looks like. I have seen the diagrams and illustrations on the web of how it works but no pics of the actual parts and am intrigued as to the mechanics. Any photos posted or sent privately would be appreciated. Thank you.

I've asked a friend if he's got any pictures of his, try w.m.p. easterly's www.dragonsoffire.com he may be able to help as well. If I hear anything from my friend, I'll let you know. Trey

Compliments of BPCR...Unfortunately, that's as big as they are.

AWESOME! Thank you! I have never seen the guts of one of these and very much appreciate the time for the photos! Gives me a very good idea now how i might build some dummy parts out of wood just for display. Thanks again!
