    No Frustration Here. That which you describe is described in the regulations for ordnance (1955) in three versions as simply having a Steel reinforcement in the middle. Wouldn't surprise me if another ad hoc improvisation existed, construction would be basically the same.

    Normandie44,

    The 6 Pdr had a wooden drill round, a common design then was a brass base, brass nose and a metal tube or rod connecting the two. The important thing with your one will be if the barrel is rifled, what internal diameter it is and most important some sort of fitting for a breech block or indeed the breech block its self.

    Teck pictures are essential for this badger I'm afraid.

    I meant pictures from Normandie of the item! However that's a nice 6 Pdr Drill, easier to double round the parade square with than a 120mm BAT Drill!!

    Drill round would suffice. Although the face of the poor unknowing people at customs would be priceless.
