Default Hi Definition British Mortar Carrier Photo

Click on this link to see a Hi-definition early British built mortar carrier, Zoom in for details up close. It has the same J&C 1942 make mortar baseplate that I have, so will try and replicate this storage arrangement but using later barrel support clamps as on Gregs Carrier.

Kevin.

The catch looks like a standard carrier catch except that the wire loop is curved, instead of flat.

Default Mortar brackets

As I had mentioned one of the supports was given to me and using this as a pattern I made the other from scratch including the clip

Default spare clips

I have some spare clips if anyone is in dire need, some brass but mostly steel. They are a bit weathered though...

Cheers
