Default Facing inwards

Hello Darrin and Mike,

I am certain that when fitted to Australian Carriers, the No 11 set faced inwards - towards the operator, with the armoured cover over the top and held down with a strap.

I seem to recall having seen a diagram of the fitting in a manual somewhere, I may even have a copy stuffed in a drawer some place if you are patient.

The bolt holes in your carrier hull should be an indicator of whether the No11 set carrier frame was mounted to the sponson direct or via a sub frame as in the british carrier. I can measure the existing frame in my Scout carrier if you need to make one up - quite simple in design.

Cheers

Phill
