==History==
The McCrudden light machine rifle was invented by ex-Australian serviceman John McCrudden following his discharge from the AIF in 1917. It is believed there are only two surviving examples of this interesting weapon, the other being held in the Pattern Room in Leeds, England. A McCrudden Light Machine Rifle Mk1 is on extended loan from the Power House Museum exhibition.〔http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/collection/database/?irn=11405&search=gun&images=&c=1&s=〕〔http://trove.nla.gov.au/result?q=mccrudden〕
McCrudden's first hand-built prototype was believed to have been manufactured at an engineering workshop in Randwick, Sydney. McCrudden and his guns traveled from Sydney to Jervis Bay for an audience with Commodore J S Dumaresq and Lt Cmdr Burgh. He was received favorably and recommendations were made that he should take the gun to England for assessment by the British War Office, Dumaresq forwarding a favorable report in light of the Navy’s pending trials to select a weapon to replace the Lewis Gun. Following Dumaresq’s advice McCrudden took his designs to England where he had additional weapons made by Kingsway Manufacturing Company Ltd in London.
