The 77mm tank rounds (short case) very seldom come up for sale ,there was one sold just recently by a UK dealer for an eye watering price.
Clearly the packaging is different for these as apposed to the 17 pdr rounds.

Default Update on breech fakery.

It appears the 17 pdr. bits and pieces are in hot demand these days with Adrian's beautiful piece he just acquired. Keep me in mind here in Canada for anything 17 pdr. related. See pics of our block/ring. Cheers Rob

Default 17 Pdr. Pump Air Horizontal No. 5 CM 2168A

Rob Nixon warned me this pump is always a very tight fit into it's socket on the left trail. Paint removal,grinding,sanding, still can't make the pump turn 45 into position. I'll get it and enjoying the challenge. Cheers Rob

Nice piece Rob, I am jealous.

If you are having too much difficulty getting it to fit, pass it on my way. I'll get it to work.
