There is a listing that i seen in a couple of places for a 34 x 291 round for the above Vickers 1.5Pr. can anyone please supply information on the gun and particularly the ammunition (photos , drawings) ???? Thanks
 
Vickers-Armstrong automatic gun Class T

Charley, if you look at the ECRA 25th Anniversary special issue that was produced in 1990 on pages 5-7 there is a fantastic article by Robert Gerber all about the design A, B and C versions of this gun with line drawings of the complete round, primer, projectile etc. I can't reproduce the article here because its presumably the property of Robert Gerber/ECRA HOWEVER it may be worth you getting in touch with Tony Williams who is in charge of the UK group and asking him about it.
I've never heard of or seen a round in any collections is there one out there?
Dave.
