I was given a pintle today that I thought was CMP but reading a lot of pintle threads it would appear it is not blitz but carrier.
The ends of the handles are flattened . Did any CMP have the flattened handle version of pintle? Ken

I took a look around the museum to see if I could find any flattened ends on the handles, but could find none. There is one exception...we have a limber on display at the main museum with flattened ends, which we noticed a few months ago. The limber is British built, but when I check our other British built Limber it has the normal hitch with rounded handles.

Interesting Ed. My 25pdr parts manual is a fairly late edition, and shows the regular hitch. Perhaps I'll have to look at the limber closer and see if there is a date.
What vintage is your manual Ed? |
