hi lynn,
i have an old bracket here the webbed horn part only, not sure if it is from a mk2 or mk1, i understand the horn sticks out 6 1/8", i was going to make the oblong piece 4 1/8" by 7 1/2" from 4mm thick material, from photos the horn is as far out as the rear foot step. If you can confirm these dimensions or correct them it would be great, i want to make horn of them this week.

Metric countersunk screws are much the same dimensions as BSF. UNF/UNC have much larger heads.

I made that bkt, and its probably not that well done. The rest of the stuff on the back panel is original or pretty accurate.
I will post a pic. that might help.

I had trouble up loading this. I had to reduce it, and now its probably not much use.

hi, thanks for the info, i will put mk2 brackets on for now, but if anyone has got a good picture and sizes of an original mk1 spade axe handle retainer bracket, please post the details.
I have tried reading the part numbers on your picture but there a little blurred. maybe you could e-mail it in bigger font to kevinpowles@btinternet.com. thanks for your time lynn, i nearly bought a british mortar carrier from new zealand a couple of years back, i wonder what happened to it. kev.
