Default Carrier part, Yes or No.

A very interesting part. It has to be a portable bren mount but has anyone seen one before. It is beautifully made and it takes half a turn to lock in place. It needs to be on 1/2" thick steel to work. ie, front of a carrier?????

Hi Shaun, thats interesting to know. I will asume then that it is not an Australian part as it is the only one I have ever seen here.

Very interesting. I can't recall one in any Australian Carrier parts catalogue. But then I could be wrong
