Just found the description of the tray under the mantlet, here is full quote from the Light Tank manual;
"Trays, Cartridge Case The No.8 tray is used with the No.10 M.G. mounting and is hopper shaped, bolted to the turret. A sliding shutter is provided at the bottom for emptying purposes. A hinged deflector at the front provides for the deflection of the cartridge cases into the tray at all elevations of the mounting" It could be said that the deflector stops the empty cases from 'splashing' over the side of the tray! regards, Richard
