Barrel Trunnion
Finished making a Boys barrel trunnion from scratch, this started off as hexagon nut.
I have a barrel available if anyone else is doing a similar project. Kevin.

In the states, a unmolested .55 Boyes is considered a Destructive Device, like any tank main gun. And needing papers. Many have converted them to .50 for lacking the paperwork requirements first, then the cheaper cost of the ammo.
There is a shop nearby that has a Boyes in .55 and asking some US$ 3,500.00 for one. They do look impressive sticking out the front of a bren carrier!

Mount
Hi Tim, I have an early 'T' monopod, on both guns, I was just going to poke it through the front hole, on a MK1 there is a special breech rest with rubber strap and another on the gun port at the front.
I am looking for the 'V' style rest, I have half of one but want to borrow one to copy, I believe it's this style of rest which is stored under the rear battery box on a mk1. Kevin.

Hi, I don’t have a drawing of the trunnion but can make one for you in a few weeks time.
Kevin.
