There is also a modification to install the 2 inch mortar on the engine cover, using a fabricated mount and the small baseplate. It was detailed in one of the old CAMT booklets if I recall correctly, and required removal of the firing rest located on the engine cover.

Very nice find Robert. Is it Canadian? I have been hoping to find one of those baseplates for a long time.

With the recent OIC firearms bans, it would appear the 2" mortar was untouched, although anything 60mm and bigger was. According to the description on the FRT, the mortar does not meet the definition of a firearm in Canada, I believe due to the low muzzle velocity. I would also expect this will be subject to review.
