Default Nice gate guard.

Details please, I am not an expert but plan on rebuilding a Canadian C3 so what is this one? A US 105 howitzer? or a Canadian C1? or is it British?

I would say it is a C1, pre-MLVW as it does not appear to have had the shields cut for the larger tires. A reasonably early release as the DND retained the telescope mounts.

The give away that it is a Cdn C1 is the little bracket on the left shield to hold the firing arcs record plate.
