Vickers MG mount.
I'm mounting a vickers on my Caunter Carrier, I've got the original mount for a carrier buy the correct locking handle is missing, anyone got details of an original handle or an original one to lend to copy please.
Thanks Kevin.

That is an Australian pattern Vickers mount.
It has a little handle like your bench vice. The threaded part is reduced in dia.at its inner end, and carries a rectangular brass block with a curve on its inside, to catch the gun pintle. The threaded part is swaged into a recess in the brass block.
