Ammo boxes are no rarity around here. Every farm auction has a couple. Even the 6 pdr bullets come up a couple times a year, but I'll worry about finding all the main gun parts first.

The tires on it now are original rims welded to jeep rims with jeep tires. It did come with a pair of original 8-25-10 tires, although one of them is blown so the hunt for replacements will begin. We installed forklift tires on a couple of similar guns at work, but they are a bit small for the application.

I bought a muzzle brake for it about a year back from MLU so I got lucky there. I have plenty of projects to keep me occupied for the next while so this one will go out to the yard until it's turn comes up.
