Pzkpfw-e Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 http://forum.panzer-archiv.de/viewtopic.php?t=9486 Must have one of the most reused & travelled bits of weaponary in the world. Pak36r, ex-Russian gun, captured by Germany & refurbished, captured by Allies (?) passed into Portuguese service (?) then into Nigerian hands. A Saracen & a Saladin lurk in the background & a couple of T-16 based APCs, plus a somewhat second-hand Eland? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddy8men Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 i'm sure the curator would be open to cash offers :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diver99 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 i'm sure the curator would be open to cash offers :-D I was thinking that. You should have a look at the Rhodesian military museums for vehicles. Probably grease the right palms. As the government archives can't afford paper for photocopying, I am sure a few shekels in the right place could secure a nice collection.

ajmac Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 There are a couple of modified T16's in the background of one of the shots, everything I have seen out and about in Nigeria has been ex British army and latterly Russian. The company offices were guarded by a couple of old guys with an SLR and an SMLE :-). As is the norm in Nigeria they wore sunglases, but I am still undecided as to the primary function, sun or to discuise them being asleep on duty!

ferretfixer Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I inherited a fortune from a Nigerian bussinessman, just about to be deposited in my account so may buy some stuff there... :-X Yes, that's an 'Amzing' coincidence, me Too. We may well be able to make the deal a lot easier here. Dont move the 'Money' out of the country, simply spend it in Nigeria on buying out this Museum & exporting it all!....................................:laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajmac Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Ha, what you don't see is that, that pile of BA rifles has been replaced by a similar number of Assult Rifles, so even more deadly than what they were disposing of! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
