Default Was No 19/WS No 31 AFV mount

It looks like you may have the bottom half of the Wireless Set No 19 Mk 111 / Wireless set No 31 AFV combination mount.

That would be post war, remembering that A Squadron 10th Light Horse Regiment's Ferret Scout Cars were withdrawn from service around 1970 and were still using this obsolete fitout at the time.

John Martin has/had the metal frames for the WS No 31 AFV and I have a pair of the sets but they are very rare in Australia.

The arms could also be part of a WS No 19 / B47 Larkspur combination mount but I'm not too familiar with that and technical information is hard to dig up.

Apart from the Arms on the sides of your mounting tray, the rest could be fitted straight Into your WW2 vehicle and look authentic as long as you added the wide strap Mike refers to.

Regards

Phill
