Gents, when I made my first Mk1 mantlet, I borrowed a mk2 type with the hinged flap, the Manlet itself was made From a single bent piece of steel. It might of been a british one. The particular carrier it came off is featured in Nigel's vol 3 'Maccolm Caley' carrier. Ron Hows your Mk2 mantlet made?, bent or welded?.
