Default 2 Pounder Mount / Cradle / Body

G'day Kevin,

I believe the style of cradle you need is the Mark IV type -which is a Canadian later version of the cradle. Very similar to the 6 Pounder type Cradle / Body.

The trail versions that you have shown pictures of here are Mark III.

Clive (servicepub - MLU Forum Member) shows the types of trails in his publication "The 2-Pounder Anti-Tank Gun in Canadian Service". He may be kind enough to show a couple of photos / images of the type you require.

Perhaps there are some other forum members who can post or show the Mark IV Carriage?

The Mark III mount would not fit, or work, in the application you are requiring it for.

Hoping this may be of assistance and makes some sort of sense. I am going from memory as I haven't got any reference material here with me at the moment.

Regards,

Darian.
