I was looking around for a vickers .303 loader and came across this:

Unused, 1918 belt loader in serialized box. That's all I know. Haven't seen any pics but am asking for them. Anyone have an idea of what it would sell for in this condition? Remember, I cannot vouch for condition at this time but would like to get an idea of worth. I do not know if it is all brass, either (or more so that the common ones).

thanks

If its an early 1918...w/brass top,arm and handle....and is in really good shape and not missing any parts.....could bring $1,000.00,especially with an original box. If its the WW2 1918 w/a shuttle type assembly....$1,200-1,300 would be a good price. An earlier 1895 or a Colt 1928 has to be evaluated as a seperate item....per caliber....anywhere from $1,300(Colt) to $1,000.00 for the 1928 in 7.65 Arg. Without pics or a better description.....its relative....

I should have said it is for a 1919MG.

FYI. The last Vickers loader I saw for sale went for almost $5000.

If it has a serialized box then it is either a Digger loader or a very early 1918 loader.
Non of the other 1918 loaders are serialized much less had the serial number on the box.
