One of the new Type 11 Infantry guns comes with carrying poles attached, but the crew for the guns includes no carriers. When I added some scratched Type 11s to my Japanese army a few months back, I used converted crew figures from the other Strelets Japanese weapons sets to work as gun carriers and ammo carriers. I modeled the gun being carried by only two crew, which could only be managed over short distances. Usually three or four crew carried the gun. The firing gun is kept very low to the ground, as normally deployed -- at least partly because the gun shield was virtually never used in combat (because of the extra transport weight).
