[QUOTE=Adame;128817]Hi

I would think that both were not attached at the same time. I have seen factory pictures of both mounts on... but I have not seen one picture of both of them (4 inch and 2 inch)being mounted a carrier at the same time. It would appear to me that the 2" inch mortar replaced the 4" inch smoke discharger. And the simple fact that during the transition of early armour production some MKII* carriers had both holes drill into their armour. I would love to see a picture of both on at the same time.

Cheers
Adam[/QUOTE I bought this carrier from a film hire company and what you see was in it. I should think that this carrier was still in its crate at the end of the war, the build date is Oct. 1944. John.
