WTB: Hand Cart Brackets, Straps, & Hooks Mounting 1917 & M2

[Jmspec]

In search of several parts for an M3A4 hand cart:

- Pull ropes, or at least the hooks and handles
- 1917A1 Mounting brackets, straps, & hardware
- M2 Browning Mounting brackets, straps, & hardware
- General purpose cargo straps and brackets
- Canvas

I hate facebook, but unfortunately the handcart forum there is much more active than it is here. Search “WWII Hand Cart Round Up” if you haven’t found it already.

- 1917A1 Mounting brackets, straps, & hardware- Johnny Christiansen is the only source I know of for repro 1917A1 tripod brackets. Check the FB group
- M2 Browning Mounting brackets, straps, & hardware- No source I am aware of
- General purpose cargo straps and brackets- a seller on eBay makes really nice reproduction straps, search user “kneass”. I bought a set of footman loops from France since I couldn’t find the right size anywhere else: https://qmi.be/en/m3a4-handcart-dodgewc ... brass.html
- Canvas- Fox Canvas LLC on FB is making repro covers
