Today has been the last major assembly of the Howitzer with the fitting of the Barrel, slipper and the shields with just the Breech block and other smalls to fit tomorrow. The howitzer is fully strippable as it would when in service ,its taken about 6 months to get to this point so it has turned out a very nice rare piece ( which will be for sale ) looking at the next gun to restore now, another 25 pdr !

2 pdr Ordnance is like gold dust to find these days, I have a live 2pdr gun here but it is sort of ear marked towards a trade. An option is to use Bofors barrels which are readily available and have then turned to the 2 pdr barrel profile this way you get a 40mm rifled bore .
