So today I replaced the damaged towing lunette on the latest gun, and moved it out to the side of the quonset for the winter. I have installed the modern tires and rims I got from collectors source for now, but will eventually clean up a pair of 15 cwt rims for this gun as well. In one of the shots, you can see the hole that I will have to patch up in the spring. In the meatime, I must protect the trail from filling with water as the freezing will likely split the trail.

A couple shots.

A couple accessories I recently picked up for the 25 pdr. The clinometer is from my favorite surplus store. The case for the dial sight came from Jim in Arnprior. It is special in that it is marked with REL, which is of course Canadian. So the challenge will be to find a Canadian dial sight for the gun.

Also, a photo of the stand for the mapboards, which I also got from my favorite surplus store.
