Default 4" Dischargers

Dischargers were either Canadian Ross's or British SMLE Enfields. The cables were for external mounts like Mk.1 carriers, Matildas and Crusaders. Triggers were used for internal mounts like Otters, Humbers and Fox. Picture is of a pair of trigger fired Ross's in the upper right side of a Fox turret.

Or were the Ross rifle device installed only on the C15TA and other armoured vehicles like the Lynx.....Otter....
