The Ordinance SBML Two Inch Mortar was a great improvement on the rifle grenade and much easier to move and use than the larger medium mortars.

Capable of firing a 2-pound 2-ounce (.51 kilo) round 500 yards (460 meters) every 7.5 seconds, the Two-Inch mortar gave solid service to British and Commonwealth forces from the late 1930's to 1960's.

I painted up this plastic Sikh mortar team this week.
