25pdr rubber drill round 1939

[Rrickoshae]

its one thing after another at the moment! Picked this up today, a brass and rubber 25pdr MkII DRILL dated 1939. I haven't yet given it a clean and its missing the top part of the drill fuze.

I'm not into large rubber things so this will be available for a suitable British WW1/WW2 trade, ideally swapped at Beltring as this is a bit on the large size to be gift wrapped.

Hello,
First time I see the rubber model.
Could you post a picture of the base and markings.
Thank you.

That would go nicely with my wooden drill round. What sort of trades are you looking for Dave?

damn it Tony, I had hoped to say that to you one day - a play on words, roll/Rolls, get it? oh, never mind!

something British WW1/WW2 ideally HE or shrapnel, doesn't have to have a case with it, again ideally unfired but might consider fired (not 18pdr), not rusty/pitted. A 4inch Naval HE would do very nicely but ideally it would be 1950/60s dated. So would a post war 25pdr smoke or illuminating proj!

see attached, I haven't had time to clean the brass yet. Dave

I just wish their tyres would last so long.
