Hi Rob,
Great restoration of a great gun! Here are some of my pictures of the 6-pdr AT Gun on display as a monument at Heelsum, The Netherlands. As you can see it is the Airborne version. The 16" wheels are a later addition, it seems the German nicked all the wheels they could scrounge off the battlefield when finally departing home in 1945! Regards, Hanno

6 pdr Gun
Hanno,
There is another very nice example of the airborne 6 pdr on display at Fort Nelson down at Portsmouth,If you ever get chance to visit it is a great Museum. E-mail sent regarding 17 pdr ! Rob..........................rnixartillery. Last edited by rnixartillery; 27-07-19 at 21:59.

Just to update this thread,I have just finished the 6 pdr restoration after shelving it for the past year and decided to have a final push to complete it.

6 pdr
Very nice piece. I like the finish on the breech block. Have you used any coating/oil on the breech or just polished the bare metal?
I would have liked to have done this to some of the 25pdrs but age and de milling have taken their toll.

Like Wayne, I am very jealous of the finish on your breech Rob. You have added another superb restoration to your collection. I tried the bare metal look on my 2 pounder, but it didn't look nice. 70 odd years in a hostile environment has taken it's toll. Ron
