Default rifle butt

Andrew

You probably know this already. The cabs featured wooden blocks at floor level, either side of the cab, to take a rifle butt. I have one or two originals around somewhere, slightly broken, but Ok for patterns. The upper metal clip for the rifle, does vary , there are more than one type I believe. Some have a rubber cushion around the clamp ( early type ), and others have a canvas covered clamp ?
