Thank you all, the owner thought it was from a Miles Master. rivet you are corect it is AH on the brake lever. Are the part numbers listed Vickers Supermarine or the Air Ministry ?

AH is Dunlop, 300….is Supermarine and JCCL is the bicycle shop that made column parts….James Cycle Company Limited…I have a lovely advert for them somewhere

You might find the part number for the brake lever starts with ‘AH’ instead of ‘A11’ looks good though, Machine guns only wing on the aircraft, no cannons.:)

Could be Ia, IIa or Va….

You’ve got a nice one there, well done 🙂

As an aside, does anybody know if the outer safety surround was originally finished in red back in the day? or would it have just been the gun button finished in said colour? Cheers.

Thanks TA and Rocketeer and also for your welcome. Would it be from a Mk5?
