2 inch Mortar Holdalls

[tom]

Having just about run out of Bren Wallets and holdalls to recreate (still looking for Indian made wallet and contents for it and the holdall) I've decided to branch out into 2" holdalls.

If anyone knows of sources (ideally cheap sources!) of 2" bits could they please let us know. I am particularly interested in the type of holdall with the skellington holder for the folding rod and the nylon version used with the 51mm mortar.

Infact I'd be interested in hearing about any 2"r elated bits, all I have at the mo' isa Mk. 8* mortar and a Canadian roll with contents, I'll put up a redback when I can remember how... although please note I'm as yet unsure if the brush/rod is Mk 3/1 or 4 or what so I will have to alter the text at a later date.

I vaguelly plan to do for the 2"what I've been doing for the Besa.

Well folks I'll redo this red back now I have the proper 2 piece rod to fit in it . It turns out I have 3 marks of rod now and a NOS later version of the wallet/roll (made in 1975 but as the ones in the 1959 manual which I will do a redback for that version since I now have all the right bits less the sponge and issue cotton waste).
