Cant believe this wasnt listed in this section... Unless it is listed elsewhere and ive gone blind...
Well,... starts officially tomorrow (although ive been here all day helping out a mate, and will be here until Saturday) and runs until Sunday 22nd. Picked up a few pieces from the many dealers and collectors
Picked up a lovely early German No 17 long delay fuze with clock and gaine today (NOT a 17A just 17!!!! been looking for one of these for years),and a nice no5 made from brass or bronze i think. and quite a few other non ordnance related bits (I also collect military folding knives) Will take some photos and post here when I get back, Tons of other ordnance stuff here, some of it would be a 2 or 3 man carry though!

Costs just under 20 quid to get in but well worth it in my opinion. Oh, be sure to bring wellies or boots, its a tad muddy in a few areas.

Ive just got back from a great day at Beltring. Caught up with lots of Bocn members,and had some great items to add to my collection to boot. Some great 2 pounder bits and some nice 2" mortar bits too.Lots of ordnance if you looked hard,but by the time I came on all the best British stuff was mostly gone! Still worth a visit though but take yer wellies. Tig:wink:

Good to read that you had a good time and that you time there was well rewarded.

I would love to see pictures of the 2 pounder bits please.
