Thanks BK,

Is that the back of a snap fastener at the top left of the bottom left photo?

I’m sorta not yet convinced that #31 is from a FN120/121 turret. Any chance of a better pic?

The inner side panel splits in two pieces, front & rear with an approximately 3/4″ wide edge stiffener riveted on along the gun cradle opening.

Interior shot of the rear turret Perspex above the gun cradle.

All Perspex on the FN120/121 turret is bolted to the internal framing made of aluminum square tube and a bent aluminum angle along the base.

I’m quite sure this is the case for most FN type turrets.

I was thinking either to the left or right of the guns .. hard to say though but thats what comes to mind.. I am sure turret boy will be able to help..

#31 – What is it made from? Steel?

The mount is similar to the type found in FN turrets.

Thanks for the update. I passed by the museum tonight and wondered when it would be moved into the park.
