That would be nice. Complete with takedown limber. I would forego the mule team used to transport the taken down rig though.Nope. Not that I don't like field artillery, but I am holding out for a Mountain Howitzer.
If y’all had neighbors like mine they’d arrive toot sweet! Bearing libations and food!!I used to have one that fired plastic 35 mm film containers filled with cement or half pound lead wad cutters. The wadcutters would go clear through an old pickup body at a 100 yards.
Also had a coehorn/mortar that fired cement filled V-8 cans around 200 yards.
Decided when I moved to town that I might be a little over gunned, and sold them.
Kinda wish now that when all of the neighbors start shooting of fireworks a week before the 4th that I still had them.
One shot would quiet things down pretty quickly.
As much as I want a cannon the words “barrel was fabricated and welded by myself” scare the crap out of me. I’ll be buying one someday but it want be that one. Absolutely no offense to that guy but I don’t know him, but I have known “welders” that were far inferior to their perception reality.

The ad said that the cannon was fired but doesn't mention if it was with a lead ball or projectile...
No thanks, I'm full up...

with comments like that, some members are going to be inclined to offer opinions of what you are full of... nice collection. What are the bore sizes and/or scales for your thumpers? The mortar looks quite small whereas the naval cannon and field artillery pieces look to be small but larger in scale than the mortar.No thanks, I'm full up...
