Had some barrels turned by a cannon maker for a ship project and have one spare to sell. 1/16 scale steel with trunnions, approximately 9-1/2" long. Scale bore and vent location. No sights or firing mechanisms installed. Drilled and tapped cascabel. Also includes scale two-piece oak cheek pieces for a naval slide carriage. Will include full size drawings for slide carriage, as used on Kearsarge, and Marsilly mounts. You can use the Verlinden 11" Dahlgren kit as a reference for needed parts. The Dahlgren is probably the most accurate model that Verlinden ever kitted.

I have not proof fired this barrel and offer no warranty - expressed or implied. Pack the barrel full of black powder, stuff the muzzle with packing, insert a fuze, light it, and as they say on fireworks packages - GET AWAY QUICK! Always exercise extreme caution when using black powder.

$175 delivered in US with usual guarantee - you don't like it, send it back. Sorry, no Paypal on this one.
