Default More on doors

I'd have to go through my pics to properly show the hinge differences...

Hanno posted a photo on the Canadian Military Pattern Facebook group of one of the Canadian door types we don't see here in Australia, I've attached the image to this post.

I've also seen a really odd door pressing on a CMP in Edmonton Canada - never seen anything like it before, and it was the truck's original door. I'll see if I can find the images. It had a square pressed into the inner door skin.

The Australian hinges also have differences to their CDN counterparts. Keith - you would be better to explain the differences there, as it's a long time since I looked at the subtleties of CMP construction.
