David Thanks! I have been doing searches on "Pintle, mount, Bren" and wasnt getting too far. I have also searched Pogo but that is too short of a search word.

Rob, I know I saw some good pictures of the tall pogo mounts and that a member made some reproductions but darned if I can find the thread.
Has anyone posted or have dimensions for that?

So are the brass Pintle mounts ONLY for AA pogo style Bren clamps/mount?

The pintles remind me of a Morse Taper with a locking grove cut in it.

Were shell casing catchers used on the Bren guns? I have seen canvas ones and a steel catcher as part of a mount in a post war version.

(for every answer I get, it only leads to more questions!) Gotta love it!
