Get to keep this puppy for awhile...
 

Dad's going to restore this puppy for the Sheriff's Department. Maybe make a bipod or tripod for it. Will probably be funner then heck to shoot.

Sheriffs! [:o]Good god, remind me never to go speeding thru your neck of the woods. What in the blazes do they need that for? Hold ups in the donut shop?

Peace through superior firepower...

What you have there is a M1919A4 .30cal Browning Maching Gun. Like all other Browning designs, a very good gun in its time. It's big brother, the M2 .50cal Browning Heay Machine Gun is still in regular service with the Army, Navy and Marine Corps. I shot MANY rounds out of a "Ma Deuce," and enjoyed every minute of it!

If he restores it well and decides to sell it, he could get a pretty nice sum of money for it.
