No 29 Ammunition Limber
Attached is a scan from a 1930's 18 pdr manual showing the No29 ammunition limber on the Martin Parry wheel conversion.
Does anyone have any other pictures showing the limber as there does'nt seem to be many on the net. Cheers Rob........................rnixartillery. Last edited by rnixartillery; 27-07-19 at 20:59.

G'day Rob, is this the same limber? Looking back and forward they appear the same. This one has been converted to a ceremonial limber for a coffin gun carriage.
   Regards Easo

Limber
I have a few photos of the limber in France 1940, plus in Len Trawins book, Early QF British Artillery, there are scale drawings of the limber and ammunition wagon but in WW1 cofiguration, with the spoked artillery wheels.
The basic layout is identical, the Martin parry conversion I did for Resicast, in 1/35th. The same as for the 18pdr, the existing axletree was used and the "MP" hanger used with pneumatic tyres fitted. It appears the same size tyre was used on the gun and limber. email me at george.dfs1@virginmedia.com Regards George
