B-36 Gun Turret

Guys can take a look at my Gun Turret recovered from the crash site in northern BC..Canada. This aircraft incident was the USAF first Broken Arrow…..Lost Nuke.

All the drive motors were intact for rotation and elevation….got one motor working…a work in progress. Upon recovery these 2….20mm cannons…Model …M24 still had factory cardboard wrapping on both barrels.

If anybody interested in purchase…let me know.

Any US sale would be minus the cannons as cannot ship to US….a true item from history…only 2 other turrets were ever recovered from site…so it is very unique.

Not every day you see someone with 2x 20mm turret in garage.
Keeps the crooks away.

Interesting to have, but no place for me.
There is a guy, Fred Bieser, in Atlanta, GA, US who is restoring turrets, maybe he would be interested?
