1917 Gun Cart Carrier parts

[FeLT]

Hello,

 

Just for eyes, parts from 1917 US Gun Cart found in French Corsica Island.

Customized by adding shock absorbers ...

I own one, and that's not the same cart. I don't know what it is.

The US cart was a copy of a French model. I have never seen a French cart.

Mine was made my International. There were two other makers in the US.

Hello

 

Thanks a lot for your answer.

Did you know the name of the french cart ? Is it for machine gun too ?

 

I've seen a "LE MOINE" Stamp on shock absorber. First time i think DESMOINES but definitly no ...

The US cart is definitely a copy of the French model. Here's my US cart.

I'm wondering of your relic is from a heavier mess cart or something similar?

Hello,

Nice website ! Thanks a lot !!!

 

So i understand, maybe i've got part for the french 1909 tool carrier. I've got 14 Wheel spoke on my parts and not 16 as your gun cart carrier.

 

And .. I just understand that i've a bat 1876 for machine gun ammo ! In poor shape .... But i think it's hard to find.
