Those patterns were used on the T-16. The largest and the smallest are up front to hold the Bren in the ready position between the driver and gunner. The others are the type used in pairs which bolt to inside hull walls over the tracks. Usually a pair on each side but by design could be removed as needed depending on the vehicle loading arrangement.
