Default Bren Front armour

I'm looking for two pieces of front armour. Does anyone in Canada make or have CNC for the very front "U" shaped opening and the triangle piece between the gunner and driver. I couldn't find much searching "amour" in the forum

Default Carrier Reproductions

Hello Murray,

Search Rick Debruyn Carrier Reproductions and it should show a thread that lists the reproduction frontal armour parts that he has made copies of. MkI & MkII.
I'm not sure if he is still making components - I know he is pretty busy in the summer but you never know.

Regards, Richard

Default Ricks armour

I have bought a few sets of Ricks armour and although I haven't put it on my carrier yet it looks really good. I was talking to him today and will see him again tomorrow. Will tell him you are asking about it.

I'll follow this and if there is a benefit in numbers I may invest in the armour for the front of the driver and the sheet next to that in the gunners' side.

Typical post war cut out - down beside the instrument panel and straight across to the gunner's slot..

MkII
