Bren Transit Case

[KEV]

Hi Derk
The clip was designed at Enfield in 1938 for use on/in AFV's but could have been used on any mounting.



I pressume to make sure that even though the bipod legs may have been folded that there was no way they could fall down and foul on anything under battle conditions.



The one I have in the pics just happens to be Canadian.



Look forward to your pictures.

I am slow in responding with the picture but trying to learn to post pictures by myself has not gone well.I have tried this many times and failed.The last time I tried,I shut the computer off with my fist! Now I have had a few weeks to cool off and will try this again.

Any idea on whereabouts I could get one of those clips.

Here is a shot of my transit case with the items placed in there cubby holes.The only spot I don't know what goes there is in the middle section,there is a square area with 2 strips of wood screwed to the bottom and a strip of wood screwed to the front section of the box that hinges sideways to hold the item in place securely.The square area measures 3 1/4'' x 3 1/4'' x 3 1/4'' high.Any ideas?






Here are all 3 boxes,the bottom box is a MK 2 which is 1'' longer than the MK 1 boxes to compensate for the longer butt stock strap of the MK 2.

Not nearly as exciting, but I have sets of that hardware (hinges, hasps and keepers) for sale. $25 a set in Canada. I don't know what the sweet young lady at the Canada Post counter would exact from my hide for shipping overseas?

...is there a Bren Case in your garage for me?? Would have E mailed you sooner but I tripped over the pile of Bren Tripods in the Garage and sprained my wrist when I hit the 3" mortar. Nothing serious.
