Also, you might fine the exploded parts diagram from the parts manual of help (if you haven't seen it) See the pics on my ebay listing.

Matt, We had a customers ferret over here in the U.S. with week lever return springs. I would recommend changing the springs if you are going to rebuild the seat.

I want to say on a side note that I have bought alot of parts from Matt and his service is top notch. Thanks for everything Matt.

Nice MK 1/2

That was a hell of a day. We had a great time.

Ok all I know this is a TALL order. I have a Bren and the upper part of the mount that the gun sets in. I need the lower U pintl part of thr mount. I would buy the complete mount if need be.

Yea I know. I was really looking for a Saladin project.

Richard Wilson is not selling the one he has on milweb. That is what he said when I sent him an email.

Does anyone have a copy or know where I can obtain a copy of a shop manual for the Saladin? The only manual I can find is the field repair manual.
