Comments by "Neil of Longbeck" (@neiloflongbeck5705) on "D-Day 80th Anniversary Special, Part 2: Landings with firearms expert Jonathan Ferguson" video.
The commentary on the footage of the K guns on the LFB ladders says that an armour plate was later fitted. It goes on to say that an adequate supply of refills was carried behind the armour plate. I think you have the later 2 gun model with armour plate. The three guns version appears to have only been used in training. Tne ladders were 100ft Merriweather ladders.
