Niels v Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 Is the left one a 17 pdr ? and right a german 88 Quote
Adrian Barrell Posted March 18, 2009 Author Posted March 18, 2009 17 pdr yes but not an 88. Extra points for vehicles they came out of....:-D Quote
mcspool Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 17 pdr yes but not an 88. Extra points for vehicles they came out of....:-D 17-pdr out of the M10 w/17-pdr, a.k.a. Achilles. . . . H. Quote
john fox Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 How about Comet, I think it was 77mm but can't remember the imperial designation, it was not a 17pdr cos as you say that's the one on the right, I guess from a Firefly? or is it even more esoteric, Black Prince? :-D Quote
Adrian Barrell Posted March 18, 2009 Author Posted March 18, 2009 Hanno gets the first virtual biscuit, the one on the left is a 17 pdr MkV from an M10 complete with its cradle. Quote
M5Clive Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 Who can identify these two? I know exactly what they are. They are two old army guns that some bloke a couple of villages down the road from me has kicking around his yard! Well I thought it was funny! Quote
Adrian Barrell Posted March 19, 2009 Author Posted March 19, 2009 Is it a 90mm perhaps from an M36 Sorry Degsy, not correct. Quote
Mag Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 they appear to be large guns from an armored vehicle... do I win? Quote
Adrian Barrell Posted March 24, 2009 Author Posted March 24, 2009 is the german one a Panther 75 mm gun ? Yes, well done Niels! Quote
Degsy Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 It's German. Thanks Adrian. I can see why you didn't mention it before, rather gives it away :-D Quote
Adrian Barrell Posted March 24, 2009 Author Posted March 24, 2009 It does rather as it's a similar size to the 17 pdr! Quote
