Another good day yesterday........
at the antique flea market at Assiniboia downs. First find was an average 37 Pattern Canteen & carrier,not a big deal but was $15.00 so offered $10.00 and got it. The second find was way more exciting, on a shelf was sitting an original Mk 1 universal carrier Bren Magazine loading tool stowage box! I had to make one from scratch when I did my carrier so was very happy to find an original one. It was a little expensive at $30.00 so I held my poker face and offered $25.00 (yes i'm cheap!) and he accepted so a great day! Now I have to wait for the weather to start warming up here so I can get it painted and mounted onto the carrier.
Regards,Derk
