I searched for this so called bermann pistol and found no pics
Thats because my keyboard is dying, many of the keys dont register all the time, and this time, it didnt register the G in Bergmann.
Good thing my new keyboard comes monday, im getting very tired of double checking everything i write!
3 spacebar errors just in this post.

That is a hard one.. looks like an aircraft machinegun thats been retrofitted for infantry use.
Possibly a Browning MK 1 or 2 (.303 cal) that came off-of a Hurricane or Spitfire (atleast the bloke in the first pic looks sorta british, so im guessing that).

Seconded. Looks like a 1919 here, too.
Ever shoot one? Sight radius is as short as some pistols. And that aside, the sights are crap. Definitely a "I'm gonna shoot thataway-ish" kind of weapon.

Grobut is the closest, it is a Browning patent, It is 30-06. But I don't think it was called the MKII, unless that is another name the Brits gave too it.
It did come from an airplane.

Allright then, final guess:
Inglis ANM2, in .303 cal, retrofitted with a stock and stuff.
Inglis is a Canadian firm that has made many of the comonwealth guns, mostly Browning patents, and where the main supplier of the .303 ANM2's fitted on british aircraft.
If it came from any comonwealth aircraft, its most likely the Inglis AMN2 .303 cal.
.30-06 and .303 is the same caliber i seem to recall, but if not, im still holding on an ANM2.

ANM2/MG40 is correct. 30-06 is the caliber...same as .303 I don't know.

This particular modification (nicknamed the Stinger) was preformed by a man named Sgt Grevich. He made 6 of them before he landed on Iwo Jima. One of them he gave to Cpl. Tony Stein, who was awarded the CMH for Valor on the Volcano Island. This Mod became quite popular from what I have read. 1350 rpm is a whole lotta love.

.30-06 and .303 are completely different cartridges. Most obvious visual difference is that .303 is rimmed and the .30-06 is not.

.303 is rimmed, 30-06 is not. A .303 has a taper, 30-06 is nearly a strait case.
