25 pdr question

[cantankrs]

Thanks Bob.

Someone tried to tell me 20.00's a while back.

We do happen to have a riveted trail with 20.00's and suspect they might be original. The trail looks just like a 25pdr trail (as far as I can tell) and came with wooden round seats - is that any kind of clue? Did another caliber howitzer use the same trail? as the 25pdr?

Regards

Here is a pic of a 25pdr at the Kingsville museum here in Southern Ontario

Was there yesterday and the tires are 900x16. With 3 piece split rim.


cheers from damn hot Windsor Ontario...

I,d like to see a pic of the 20,s, they would run very close to the turntable if fitted. the blitz rim and 25pr rim have a different offset BUT the bolt holes line up so if no 16s available bolt on whatever to get it home.
