YipEEEEEEEEE,  Got the first parts for my Victory build and received paint set from CMB. Having read - researched and read again I think I see a problem with the 12lb cannon. The mag info seems to have the carriage center piece the wrong way round. I would have thought that the wide end, would be to the rear of the carriage, so as to take the width of the back end of the cannon. I am also building the SOTS and that I have built wide end to the rear. Could somebody clarify the correct way to assemble the carriage.

Hi On the Vic build the wide end is at the front of the cannon, narrow to the rear, well it is on mine anyway! Steve

Thanks Karl, Having been onto several sites, looking at the Victory, including the official visitors site to the real Victory, you have confirmed my suspicions.
