They have three 90mm anti aircraft guns. Two are very complete, while one is missing the axles and a few other parts. Price is 7K each.

They weigh in at 18,000 lbs each, and most of the tires are flat, so it may require a crane to lift them onto a flatbed.

Considering how many guns you actually find on the open market in Canada, these are a bargain in my opinion.

The 90 is a heavy gun, indeed. The gun we recovered to the S&P Museum was transported by a tilt bed truck. Loading was a breeze as the wheels turned freely despite the flats. "Up bogie!"

Default Guns of Prefair

Some photos of the 90mm Guns at Prefair. Its an amazing place to visit, lots of treasures. I picked up 6 NOS WWII large tent bags, with nice markings for 6.00 ea. The heavy canvas alone was worth the price.
