Fat Frank Posted 19 March , 2010 Share Posted 19 March , 2010 Hi Guys We have been given 5 new (new to me anyway) guns for restoration. One is a British 6pndr AT gun (of no interest here). The other 4 are: 13 pndr, no limber (our second one of these to do, they are diffecult, lots of work) 7.5cm Mountain gun L/17 Model 1908 10cm leichte Feldhaubitze 98/09 Krupp 10.5cm M1892(rare example here) Will begin to collect them on Tuesday (Monday is a holiday), should take 2-3 months. Let the games begin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieBris Posted 20 March , 2010 Share Posted 20 March , 2010 How many surviving WW1 guns are there in South Africa? Is there a website documenting the surviving guns? Regards, Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Frank Posted 22 March , 2010 Author Share Posted 22 March , 2010 We have 950 odd cannon and 350 odd guns on display. Which are of WW1 vintage is a little diffecult to separate out and some of the gun we have are WW1 and were still used in WW2 (the 6" 26CWTs are good examples of these). There is a book coming out with a "complete" list (a list like this is never complete). I have the draft but have agreed not to share the details pending publication. I will keep you informed.
