Rob,

Here you go. This 25-pdr is on display at the base museum at the Oranjekazerne ("Orange baracks"), Schaarsbergen (near Arnhem), The Netherlands.

Full views of the gun, note it does not have the characteristic muzzle brake:

Gun barrel and breech details:

Gun carriage details:

I am not an artillery expert, so please us know if this combination of gun and carriage is correct.
