In March 2000 the intrepid Sherman Register reporter Joe DeMarco went to
South Eastern Equipment Co. at Augusta, GA, and found fifteen Sexton 25 pdr
SP Guns in various conditions. These are the last of the batch of 47 SECO
bought from the Portuguese government in the late 1980s. Joe believes they
all have their engines. At that time they were priced at $9,800.-

Seems SECO is now having a sale to prevent the cost of cutting them up....
