QF 25pdr and FAT cab 13

Bronco really tick boxes for me, super fine details with a large breakdown of parts and the 25pdr doesn't disappoint.
Sadly my camera settings went up the proverbial and the sprue shots were unusable In light of this I will redirect you here for a nice review and associated pictures of the kit contents.

The 25pdr entered service with the British and commonwealth forces in 1940 and stayed in service with forces around the world into the 1990's so the choice of finish and setting is vast. For my build it will be a Canadian gun set in Italy, these guns were invaluable in the slow crawl up the length of the Italy, dislodging very well dug in German troops high in the hills and mountain top fortresses.
Right on with the build. Stage one has you assemble the breach block. which if your careful will open and close
Stage two has you making a choice, there are three barrels to choose from, two are the late with a muzzle break, these were introduced in 1942 to increase stability when firing the newly introduced AP shell. For my build I need the early barrel minus the muzzle break.
More later
