How similar in construction was this mount to the Command & Recce GPMG Kit for the Iltis?

The "Z" arm GPMG mount is very robust, and is similar to the GPMG mount for the observer of the Lynx recce vehicle. The Ferret .30-06 MG swivel mount is again similar but just a bit different.
Not much to be said for the arm except it is 2" or 2 1/4" diameter steel tubing. There is a captured ring and block for the crosspin in place of the pintle traverse and elevating mechanism. The head is a square block with another traverse pin for the front pintle. The final fitting is a flat bar between those two pins which has nubs and teeth to hold a NATO spec' ammunition box. The drawings pages are likely ones saved from Rob and the front view of the mount looks like one of mine.
