Fiat-Revelli M35
The Fiat-Revelli M35 is a Italian heavy machine gun. The machine gun derives historically from the Perino Machine Gun on design of Bethel Abiel Revelli in 1910 and completed in 1914. The first version, called Fiat-Revelli M1914, was used during the WWI, but the sleeve water-cooling is too heavy, and the charger is small and prone to jams (due to the oil pump), and finally 6.5 mm projectiles are not quite destructive. So it is realized an improved version: the M14/35, with a different system of cooling and caliber different. The system of water cooling has been replaced with the air and the fuel system is made in the metal strip instead of cassette loaders, eliminating also the pump of lubricant present in Fiat-Revelli M1914 or Breda Modello 30.
