P-38 Cockpit questions for the experts


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know what the curved handle on the lower left side of the forward panel is for?  It appears to be hinged at the bottom and has a selector knob in the middle.  On the Tamiya kit it is part B17.  It appears that Lockheed eliminated this handle on the J model and later. 
 

Thanks.

That’s  the one. Thank you. 
 

Gun charging handle was my suspicion  but I wasn’t sure. I was looking for a similar picture on the web but couldn’t find one. Thanks for posting.
