fstop61 Posted December 28, 2014 Share #6 Posted December 28, 2014 Wow! Most of us get thrilled finding a 37mm shell and you got the whole cannon-pretty impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

m1ashooter Posted December 28, 2014 Share #9 Posted December 28, 2014 Pretty cool. What does the gunner hit or pull to fire it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tankdriver Posted December 28, 2014 Author Share #10 Posted December 28, 2014 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backtheattack Posted December 28, 2014 Share #11 Posted December 28, 2014 Great! A wonderfull peace for reenactment. Wish I had one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1SG_1st_Cav Posted December 28, 2014 Share #12 Posted December 28, 2014 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
