But probably best to build it yourself, or commission a machine shop.

Yeah, well I have some cannons, a small machine shop, woodworking. I don't cast barrels, but they're readily available online.

I was just wondering about this specific cannon in the photo and if anyone knows anything about it.

My nephew is a hobby craftsman/woodworker. He made a model civil war cannon, used a piece of waterpipe for the bore inside a fake wooden barrel. Put a hole in the base for a firecracker and shot ping pong balls out of it. That thing was a blast.

I've got one that is well done, can shoot billiard balls, etc. I'd sell it for $3000 which is less than I paid but you'd have to pick it up in NE Texas.

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

There is always one or more cannons of varying size around my shop. The guy I lease from is always building them. Here is the latest..it is in the final stages of completion. The bore is 2 5/8" just the right size for a pop can. This one is for sale but if it's not your cup of tea I am certain he would be happy to build anything.
