A very nice early Christmas present to yourself, if only I had the money, the storage and the contacts! Ian

A few more pictures of progress ,I have a big pile of component's that are ready for sandblasting .
All the parts have been stripped, unseized cleaned and reassembled with the odd repair .
Some tin work needs reproducing as it is beyond repair so Mr Barrell has kindly taken this on.

Rob,

Thanks for the pictures, only now I realise this guns traverses on some sort of turntable, rather than on a pivot as I understand most guns do.

Yes ,I thought I would post some pictures because you don't see any pics of the internals of this sort of thing ,its all new to me !
I have learnt that it is quite a complex little thing .
