Guys does anyone have any info on the conversion from WW1 configuration of the 18lb gun in Aussie service? I really do need the info to convert a kit I am about to buy of the British version. I do have photos of the conversion done to the limbers but is the gun the same?

For the limber the original axle was completely removed according to some photos I have BUT if this was done to the gun carriage new shield mounts would be needed as they attached to the old axle.

Mike Cecil can you help or do you know someone who may be able to take a few pics of a real one for me?

Thanks in advance
