Vickers All-Steel Feed Block Body Hand Select:Yes These are the flares thatOriginal Item: While the vast majority of Vickers machine gun feed blocks were made of brass, a few were made of steel because of the improved wear characteristics.

IMA has found a few of these steel blocks. The blocks are in good to very good condition.
