Hello Kevin, do you know if the 2 Pdr mount is a specific Carrier item, or would it common with the standard gun? The 2 Pdr has a traverse mechanism. A group I am in have two 2 Pdr, one of which is res.tored and one in the process. You’d be welcome to come and measure what we have.
Regards, Tom

Hi Tom, No that won’t help, it’s unique to the tank hunter carrier to take the saddle off a Mk4 6 pdr gun carriage.

Hi Kevin. I can't help with any dimensions, but studying your pictures, there are five attachment studs and holes? It makes sense that there is a webbing piece between each hole! Otherwise it wouldn't be evenly supported. Ron

Kevin, if you have the correct spigot for the male side of things, couldn't you just reverse engineer the female side of the job ? you have images, surely its a case of machining to fit the male portion then make it look correct ?
just a thought.

Hi Kevin, if it’s a 6Pdr saddle that was used, we’re restoring two of those as well (an early and a late), so could get dimensions from the guns we have.

I know the Canadian War Musuem in Ottawa has one, does anyone live near there who could take measurements? Kevin

Mount bearing.
No one got one kicking about over in Canada? I got the saddle almost finished today ready to fit to the shield and drill attachment holes.
