JJcustom ($315 + sh) http://www.jjcustom.net/products.html

Dewat made one that duplicated the function of the 1918 loader. Price was just under $500 I believe. Only has one post since the great crash.

L999here is making new 1918 loaders. Yep, that is correct. duplicates of the originals. Hard to beat for $290 delivered!!!
Naw, just kidding on price, I have no idea. Drop him a note on these as he is finishing them up. The parts I have personally seen have been nice.

OK, not much to go on there, I agree. But will add to it.

...count me in,too...

Brian....email sent. I still am making parts for and restoring the 1918 Browning Belt Filling machines. In process of getting a COMPLETE belt loader made from all new parts....but iron casting Co. broke some molds before production was complete. Minor production problems like this are slowing down the project....stay tuned.....

Here comes the sticky!



GREAT INFO!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BeltFedPlus]

M7 .50 cal. Conversion Plate to 30-06/7.62/8mm

I've been using an M7 linker for a couple of years now that I converted and I'm running a short batch of 4 conversion plates and brackets now, (Rory gets the first one). The converted M7 links 16 at at a time. Price? $99.00 plus shipping. It takes about 15 minutes to install and requires only the removal of the pins and the front guide plate and can be changed back in a like time. If anyone is interested PM me.

Regards,
Tom
