Summary
| Description |
English: This photograph shows the Salvator Dormus 1893 Machine gun in it's optimum configuration before changes made in 1902 with the new model. This gun on a landing carriage and shield like this was most likely the configuration used by the Austro-Hungarian bluejackets (sailors) from the Cruiser Zenta during the defense of siege of the Peking Legations in 1900 during the Boxer Rebellion. Note the chargers for the top mounted fixed magazine on the top and ammunition boxes on the carriage which was typical of naval machine gun landing carriages of the pre-WWI era. |
