I am searching for details of the above named aircraft gun feeding system. It equipped Italian Ni. 11s in 1916. The best picture I have shows two conducts going from the inside of the fuselage to the gun. Both conducts are square in section, one of them is larger than the other. I suppose there was one ammo box inside the aircraft, maybe also for spent cartridge cases, but this is just guessing.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks very much in advance to all those who will take the trouble and time to answer.

Model '14? Browning/Colt? Was this the "potato digger" action, having a gas orfice at the top of a pivoted "hammer" near the front of the barrel?
