Kerrison Predictor

[Damien Allan]

Hi Godwin, and hello all of the Kerrison correspondents.

I do have a spare sets of T&E motors which are available. I am in Sydney - contact 0419 230 043. Also I have spare elevation gearboxes including hand cranks for anyone who needs those.

I have been lucky to acquire a Kerrison in transit case with optics ex-barn in Bathurst. It has a few parts missing, and I will have to remanufacture them most likely. That said, I am looking for the No.3 Predictor Illustrated Parts List (to work out what is missing), and the whole No.3 predictor tripod.

I noted previous references in this thread to getting the M5 manual on line, but I have not been able to find it myself. Anyone have a current link?

Looking forward to hearing from anyone who can assist.
cheers,

Damien

PS. No.3 MkI Predictor for Kerrison is different to the 3in No.1 predictor. The No.1 series were for Vickers made for mainly 3.7in AA. They are heavy and densely packed with gears and cams. Japanese predictors were based on the Vickers commercial models that came out between the wars - would be happy to collect one of those too.
