Thanks guys as it took a lot of work to get the pictures I needed but it was an interesting exercise for me. I hope you find it of help along with the pictures of the 25pdr in various parts.

Hi Darren,

Thanks for the review. Seems another rushed Allied job which is a pity. I like the crew, perhaps they will release them separately?

I have the Bronco kit which offers more finish choice so it's doubtful I'll bother with this one.

Cheers

Alan thank you. To be fair to Dragon their offering does include a couple of details that Bronco missed such as the pick axe head however I do agree with you. Also in the interest of fairness I am in the process of writing a build review of the Bronco 25pdr which is taking some time due to the number of parts and miniscule size of some parts. I hope that this way the members here will have the information to make an informed decision on which offering best meets their requirements.

Thanks Darren ! My instruction sheet is covered with lots of notes. Great work inter mingling the kit with the real thing. Thanks again for all your hard work/labor of love on this review !

Hi Darren,

Yes, there are a lot of parts in the Bronco kit. I've made a start on mine but I have only the barrel made at this point.

Look forward to the Bronco review, your write up of the DML kit is very good and comprehensive. Thanks also for the additional reference pics.

Cheers

Al

Guys I am glad this was of help and if any member needs help with specific areas of the 25pdr or limber drop me a line and I will get the pictorial information you need.
