Default Universal Carrier Grease Gun Brackets

Made up some copies of the Bren Gun Carrier grease gun bracket. Designed to mount under the fuel tank straps on the RR tank. In the photos are an original (used for copies & not for sale) the bare steel copy that you will recieve and a finished one I made up for my carrier to show the final result before painting. I opted to copy the stamps and spot welds on mine so you can see the finished result.

I only have ten (10) extra's made up to sell. Price $30.00 ea (CDN) plus postage to your location. Sold first come first serve basis so PM me your wants.

Cheers

Default hi Brian

I removed a similar bracket from the top of the engine cover on my 1944 F60 LAAT, I thought it was the remains of a Fire Extinguisher bracket. I better go take a look through my scrap bin. I recently bought a CMP grease gun and was wondering where it would be stowed.
Thanks for posting your pics. Excellent work Stephen

I hope I didn't buy 6. 1 should do me just fine. What kind of strap was used to secure the grease gun to this brkt. Would it have been something similar to a web strap??

Yes, it was a thin web strap and buckle of the same fashion as the others on a carrier. It went through the little loop bracket on the back of the bracket and around the grease gun.

Any idea on how long it was? Or just long enough to go around the gun.

Just long enough. As with anything carrier, there will be just enough to do the job, and never too much. There was a war on, and adding extra inches unnecessarily onto a certain part over the production of thousands of machines was considered wastage.
