III machine gun was widely used as onboard armament of Allied aircraft during World War I. It gained special popularity thanks to its effective drum magazine and reliable air-cooled construction. It was present, among others, on aircraft such as the Sopwith Camel and the Bristol F.2 Fighter, proving effective both as the pilot's firearm and in rear observer positions. Apart from British aviation, the Lewis Mk. III was also used by the armed forces of the USA, Canada, Australia, and France during the struggles on the fronts of the Great War, and its designs survived in various variants up to the Second World War.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eSet Contents and Quality\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePrecisely cast resin Lewis Mk.
