What is this??

This should fit right in here, as it looks and smells like something that was burried in the back yard from WWI or II. Someone mixed up an order (dealer whose name shall go unmentioned) and sent me this instead. What the devil is it? Looks like some sort of brass catcher, possibly for a Bren.

Thanks.

Nice picture. You've got all the cool accessories. If only we could still shoot these. What an awesome piece of history they are.

I have to send it back for credit, and then they will send me the part I ordered. Otherwise I'd have been happy to give this smelly item a new home where its wanted.

Thanks anyway,

Just an add, those butt handles for the Bren were mostly discarded by Bren gunners. They eventualy wound up being used as carrying handles for the 2 inch mortar
