Wow! Most of us get thrilled finding a 37mm shell and you got the whole cannon-pretty impressive.

 

You're close enough that once we get the M5 3" back, you are welcome to come up and play. Also they will be at the Linden TN re-enactment in Sept.

Pretty cool. What does the gunner hit or pull to fire it?

See the elevation know show here. The plunger in the center is pushed, to fire it.

Spectacular! The only thing I would do to it would be to remove the paint from the surfaces of the breech block as it slides up and down.

Those should be smooth and we'll greased for authenticity. Just a suggestion! :):mellow:;)

All suggestions appreciated.

 

I will do that.

 

Thanks
