I will have to get it down from storage

Will take some pics in the next day or so

Very Happy with it, as I do re enactments and we use the Boy's it's very good to have it totally protected and doesn't look so obvious when moving it around.

Will give you some measurements at the same time

Default Bren and Vickers chests

There might not be a genuine chest, but from looking at others, there are enough suggestions what elements it might include.
