Diameter of fire extinguisher for FE bracket

[maddawg308]

I have given up trying to find an affordable military fire extinguisher for my -725 restoration, and have decided to find a commercial extinguisher of appropriate size to fit the military FE bracket, and just spray green. What is the correct diameter for the military FE to fit this bracket, so I can find a commercial one that fits?

I have Badger dry chemical extinguishers in my mil brackets and they fit fine. Model5MB-6H 2002, 4 1/4" dia.

Hey maddawg308, Try a guy on e-bay, Austin Avation, marble falls Tx. He has some that are empty, I think he wants 25.00

If you can't find him under Austin Aviation, try his ebay nickname beltfed34

Thanks, guys, for the right size. I told a buddy of mine who is in fire protection, and he's going to find me one of the correct size floating around his place.
