Robert: Are you talking about the brass mount on the close-to-the-camera side? There are 4 of those on the mk1 standard carrier. They accept the spring loaded pogo stock mount to hold a Bren gun in the anti-aircraft position.

Or this. They also came out with a different mount to fit in the Vickers mount in the Australian type carriers. This one is correct for the Bren as mounted in the gunners slot in the Pre-Universal carriers.

Thanks Bruce , Rob and Lynn.

It is an education . It is certainly intereresting. The differences between a Mk 1 and a Mk II are numerous.

Arthur, I have one as per photo, but with the Vickers mount base. I would trade that Vickers base for one like that in the photo.
