I had a look at one of these in the showroom when they first bought them & it's wonderful, a true piece of miltary history.

Ironically the lightweight shouldn't be towing these guns, the gun is as heavy as the towing vehicle & the braking system on the gun is not linked to the towing eye, they operate on independant handbrakes on the wheel hubs

but yes they do look nice when working, its a shame they took away the platform from underneath the gun

Not every problem can be solved with duct tape, and it's exactly for those situations we have WD 40
