We are into the gun restoration trying to free up the traverse/elevating gears after being buried for so long. They are a little gummed up to say the least. I thought I would post some pics out of the manual of some of the parts needed. The gun is quit incomplete so this part search is going to take a couple of decades I figure.
Parts needed first time around: Elevating handle and worm gear part#25,41,49,50,etc... Seat and attachments...All accessories...and of course ordnance breech and muzzle brake. Thanks for looking...Cheers Rob and Tony in bloody cold Manitoba!

I just found a Broad C Arrow mark on this made in England gun. Should I be surprised at that? Pardon my ignorance here. Cheers Rob
