I just found 2 more box's for the LAAT . That makes 2 more and the LAAT will be up to snuff. I would love to find a box for the rest of my brass! Cheers for now, Rob.

EERRGGHH!! Do I count... 77... 40mm brass there, Rob? You must have cornered the world market!! So, how many do you actually have??!!

I have 230 total brass rounds, 192 in the truck, 8 in the loader, and the rest under the gun. I only have 2 original projectiles so it appeares I have a long way to go. I was very lucky to find a big lead courtesy Rob Love, but this was before he had his own Bofors. That lead is now tapped out. Cheers for now Rob.

Just a quick pic

And of course you need some card tubes for the loose rounds in the C.216

All these guys showing off their stuff, and I don't got nothing to show. My collection of rounds has just been building slowly one by one. I do have a milk crates worth of brass over at the source once I get home in a couple weeks.

Rob, I expect to be hitting a lot of farm auctions this summer, so I have no doubt more of the metal boxes will show up.

those cardboard tubes are not seen around here to often, keep me in mind when you are contemplating thinning out the collection. Rob, I am sure I'll bump into you this summer, still trying to find Dirk a 134" Ford. Cheers Rob
