Can’t find it . By the way to anyone interested : Modern 81 mm mortar round cardboard tubes / canisters fit perfectly in the bin . If you cut the tubes to lenght you can fit 6 in there just like the originals . I will post pictures soon .Perfect reproduction containers. Now where do you find those tubes ? Look into garbage containers after a mortar shoot on your nearest base . They are free !

As promised . Here are the 81 mm mortar cardboard tubes . You can fit 6 in there just like the originals ! Richard , keep looking but reproducing a friend’s original might be the only solution. Cheers . Bob

The “document bin” is for documents. It’s for the Mk1 Carriers.
