Default 90mm AA guns

Got delivery of one of the 90mm M1A guns that used to be at prefeir surplus. Another is headed to a private collector in Saskatchewan as we speak. I am pretty sure reports from about 4 months ago when I was in Ottawa would mean the third found it's way to BC. So if my math is right that means all the 90s at prefair are now gone. Has anyone been to prefair in the last few months and noticed there were only two left? It should be down to zero now.

I got the one with no axle, and the front toungue was cut. I already have an axle lined up and will reweld the front. All the outrigger legs were found in the prefair yard so it will be complete that way. I'll post some photos later, but it is set up in the back yard now, and I am quite happy with it.

One thing I am looking for is the towing lunette (ring) as this part was missing. Does anyone know of any parts guns out there?

Rob, you' building quite the collection of interesting stuff out there in the "armpit". It never ceases to amaze me the stuff that you're ending up with, good for you just remember to stay away from trains.

Will do on the train thing.....it's kind of a second instinct these days.

Here are some shots of the 90 getting unloaded.
