Fort Henry Cannon souvenir dating from my childhood when I couldn't afford one. Fires well - airburst at 16' +

Barrel length over all 5 1/2", 5/16 bore. All brass and teak, machined parts, no plastic.

bet they don't sell these any more ~:xd:

Very nice, looks like much more of a fun souvenir than the plastic versions you can get now.

A nice cannon, I picked this mortar up a while ago at a local fair,not sure how old it is because it has been cleaned but it still has signs of a dark patina in the corners of the front cross bar.
