Default nothing like a bit of progress

I have been slowly chipping away at the 6 pounder. Since last post.....
had the broken leg welded, got the breech working, re assembled everything, fresh coat of paint.......

we have a firing mech and a few blanks, intend to have it checked over by someone who has a few more clues than me about Arty things and pop off a few loud booms this weekend.

Things still to do, sort allighnment out at the trail ends...... not quite right.
