    A great modern 4 pounder cast in Ontario with a steel lined bore. This is a very attractive and well made cannon. This piece is a reproduction of an English gun. The barrel is 54" long from muzzle to ball, the bore is 3". The tube is mounted on professionally built garrison carriage which is 23" high at the front end and 12 1/2" at the back end. The carriage width is 18" and 34" including the wheels. The carriage is built to original specs with the correct taper and hardware. The overall length is 58". The wheels are the correct iron bound garrison type, 9" in diameter and 3 1/4" width. This is the ideal piece for the person who wants the ultimate lawn ornamen, or for the reinactor who simply wants to shoot cannon. This piece was built approximately 25 years ago. At todays cost the carriage alone would sell for approximately $3,000. Shipping can be easily arranged for the purchaser.
