Was A Navy thing now seems to be more a RAF thing, with the Chinnys and Pumas the only ones still having the old Pistol, Pyro,No 4 Mk1 1 1/2 Inch fitted. even the Merlin has a box for Pistol and carts. not that there's ever anything in them.
And when i say old, most of them are 1940's vintage.

Love the HiJack fot, " Take this Plane, To Luton"

On Another Note, we used to do a lot of gunnery here at BCE on the Scout, with two skid mounted fwd firing GPMGs down at Castle Martin, With the ETPS. bit before my time but they were still in the gun bay when I was a snotty nosed apprentice.
