FAT Fast 17 pounder recovery

[rnixartillery]

Hi guy's

Very interesting and lucky find you have there ,do you have the ordnance for the gun,barrel,breech ring etc.I have a complete 17 pdr which I have spent about 12 years restoring as parts have come along but I also have a complete carriage which I am also scourcing parts to complete a second gun.
As far as I have researched some gun crews towed their 17 pdr's behind no 27 limbers to act as a brake and to carry small stores,the 17 pdr ammo is fixed so it does not fit inside the limber unlike the semi fixed 25 pdr ammo.
