Default sights

At the sandblaster today, I noticed the local RSL have their 25 pounder gun in for a refurbish - a sandblast and a paint . The gun is looking a little tatty in its faded and not so waterproof light stone finish . I'm not sure of its providence but I see it has no muzzle brake . I will take some pics if anyone needs info.

During one of my early VMVC trips we visited a CMF unit, they had a 25 pounder parked in the yard and the soldiers there noted that our club's 25 ( towed behind a F15A) was in better shape than theirs
