    So that was a visit to a local private museum. I know the owner well and have just scored the wooden mold that made those. Currently waiting on a quote to get cast and gun metal barrels made in Chch with seamless steel liners. Won't be cheap, but I'm not really sure of any other options.

    20 years in the AHAA. Good bunch. Very rarely get their cannons out in the top of the south....
