    Sorry it’s taken a while to reply.

    Looking at your numbers etc, I’m beginning to wonder whether your grip might be from a Gloster built machine, i.e. G3, G4 etc. Besides their own products, Glosters built the Hart, Hardy and Audax on contract to Hawker.

    The mystery deepens!
    Thanks for all that.
    Any idea how I could find out what the numbers mean?

    That looks very like mine, but the firing levers are not clamped together.

    Flaming waste of time if you ask me.
    The sooner this nonsense is put to the vote, the better.

    Would the numbers on it give any clue?

    Hi Der,

    I’m not a complete expert on pre-war Hawkers but I don’t think they all had brakes anyway. I have an A.P. for the Hart and it does not refer to brakes. There is an appendix on the Hart (Special) and this had Palmer wheel brakes which were operated from the rudder pedals.

    As far as I’m aware (and I stand to be corrected), the levers on the BSA grips were always for operating guns.

    Regards!

    Al

    Thanks for all that Al.
    How would I know if it was from a Hawker? Is it possible to narrow it down at all?
