ADEN 30 mm Aircraft Weapon Deactivated

ADEN 30mm Aircraft Weapon (deactivated) is supplied totally complete with a London Proof House ‘certificate of deactivation’, together with 5 linked ballast/dummy rounds partially loaded through the feed mechanism.

All parts have been thoroughly cleaned, repainted and lubricated and the gun professionally re-assembled by AEI’s resident armourer.

Deactivation has modified the following parts;

• Gun barrel plugged and welded, slotted, partially sectioned (optional), pinned and welded to the breach cylinder housing assembly.
  The barrel is NOT removable,
• Breech cylinder chambers plugged and welded,
• Firing pin housing; firing pin protrusion hole welded closed.
  The rear of housing welded to breech cylinder shaft rear bearing.
  Firing pin housing is NOT removable.
• Breech cylinder shaft rear bearing is NOT removable.
• Firing pin striking tip removed,
• Cradle ‘T’ brackets modified,
• Front slide ejection ramps modified,
• Rear slide secondary rammer modified,
• Breach cylinder housing – being pinned to the barrel – is NOT removable

The 5 linked ballast/dummy rounds are loaded into the gun feed mechanism, with the first round jammed in the primary rammed position. The slides are therefore to the rear and return springs near fully compressed.

Using the return spring removal tool (optional), the feed mechanism is removable and slides functional using the hand cocking tool (optional).
