Default 6 pounder wheels and axle

Hi Stuart:

Looks like you've got the hubs and axle as well. Grab the lot as they are hard to find. Someone restoring a 6 pounder or a 4.2" mortar will need them at some point.

To give you an idea of value, last spring I bought a home made trailer here in Canada that had the same axle, hubs and wheels for $120CAD just to get the 6 pounder parts. It was the first set of spare wheels and hubs I had seen in nearly 30 years of collecting artillery!

Cheers! Mike
