Interesting pic of 17 pdr.
taken from the Canada at War and British Pathe series. See bolt on camoflage horizontal line shield addition on top right of shield and also a pile of 17 pdr. shells, tough to come by. Also the hard to find ammo box metal C288MK1 and C317 MK1. Cheers Rob

Just a couple of pics.
Finally taught myself how to coil drag ropes for a nice compact look on the front shield. Bell tent work/tools and stuff. Cheers Rob

17 Pdr. brass/projectiles
I was fortunate enough top find another brass shell for my 17 pdr. this last week, and the price was right at $60.00 plus shipping. Keep me in mind when visiting the flea markets, always looking for anything 17 pounder related. Cheers Rob
