Hi.

Friends of mine have a very rare Bren gun carrier that mounted a 2 pounder gun. They need the gun, breach and mount but not the wheeled undercarriage. Anyone got anything or know of anything?

Thanks

This would be one of the Australian carriers? I saw one in the flesh at Littlefields and have a hard copy photo. You could try the Mapleleaf Up! website, or look up International Movie Services, Ian there might know of something. Further afield this is a great site. (Doug's Heavy Metal Site, not music!!)

Of course they could always build this out of it!
 
There is the remnants of a 2 pounder here in Manitoba. I actually had it in my yard for a couple years after I did some work on it, then it went back to it's owner.
It is just the carriage, the shields, and the basic cradle for the gun, but portions of the recuperator, the barrel, and the breech ring are missing. I stuck a 40mm bofors barrel on to it in the meantime, and it looks the part.
While the dealer who has it isn't actively trying to sell it, everything has a price.
