ANYONE got something like this in their "junque box"

[wheaty]

Trying to help out a chum and just no luck so going to try and post a picture here and see if anyone has something like this. The links have to be exactly as per the photo as well as the dummy rounds.
If not appropriate here, just zap this request, as did not know where to place it.

maybe they where used to start the belt on MG's like those for aircraft

what is this ? have lots of links and starters

Likely FOR a Browning, going by the links, but that on with the tab welded on is a very early Mark II or Mark VI round.

Possibly an Aircraft Ordnance tool?

Keeping an eye on this thread because I plain DON'T KNOW.

Aaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!

Sorry, should have included some additional info.
It's the follower tab set for a Bren 100 round drum.
Aircraft .303 links also hold below the neck and will not work which is why I'm looking for some to help out a chum who has a gutted Bren drum.

Soooo.....this begs the question....with 3 rounds as the follower, did the drum hold 97 rounds, or 100?
