That would be "Gunner"

As Yith says 37 pattern is used for the whole war while 40 pattern is only seen from about 1942 onward. So 37 pattern gives you more choice in your portrayal.

People seem to be recommending Panther Store at the moment. Though Khaki Devil is another one to try... Then of course SoF... heh...

Pegasus, Dickie Knight, WPG, Spearhead... etc.. etc...

Quite a few to choose from!
