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

The breech ring and block have just been stripped back ,polished and oiled.
I have had the problem with some of my other pieces when the breeches just don't clean up that well so I then paint them . I still need to find a sight mount but I am hopeing one will come along some day. The gun is live and held on a section one firearms license Rob...................rnixartillery collection

Manual
Hi Rob: Just read your thread on the 6 pounder. I don't have a spare parts manual, but I do have the handbook for the 6-PR Marks 1, 1A and 11, dated 1942. If you need any info from that, let me know. Cheers.....Robert
