    The Stand, Instrument C. No. 47 Mk. I as manufactured by Research Enterprises Limited is designed with folding legs that can be placed in two "height" lengths. When the folding legs are placed in the first, or lower profile, the articulated centre post is dropped and swung to the side.

    As the comments section does not appear to permit attachments, I will post an image elsewhere.

    To add further to the Knowledge Libraryicon , the new edition of the fine book '' without warning '' confirms that there was a canvas pouch especialy designed for and issued for the stand C no 47 Mk 1.

    I own such a pouch and will post a picture as soon as i am asked and told where to post it.

    The picture in Clive's book is mine as well as the pouch.

    Thank-you Clive for publishing it.

    We'd be interested in hearing about the source of the new edition you mention?

    The last edition we're aware of was published in 2004...

    Clive indicated to me that there wasn't going to be an updatr?

    Without Warning - Canadian Sniper Equipment of the 20th Century, Clive M. Law, 88 pages, 140 ill.

    Publisher: Service Publications (2004)
    Language: English
    ISBN-10: 1894581164

    Regards,
    Doug

    Hello Doug,

    I am away from home right now for a while and on an isolated military base. Upon my return, I will find the page and the edition. Cheers. Robert
