I only have primitive tools soooo had to improvise ...... tooker down to the range and she has a real good report for a .69 cal. .... also did some lead ball shots at 20 yards and boy was that fuuuuuun ... so my nieghbors will be pleasantly surprised come Fourth of July  !!   Brooks barrel is A good product I would definitely recommend them ......

 GDAY FRIENDS .... Thanx for the encouragement .... I pulled the wheels off A cannon  replica I found on ebay for  $18.00 .... I thought it was worth it ... The replica was called  ..  EL TIGRE ...  and I think they are commonly seen  on eBay or gunbroker.com ..... I looked at casters but the ones I found  where A little oversized for this scale of cannon ....... I like the sound of that Tropico ...THE GOLDEN GUN  !!!  ......  Arr Bee Darrrrrr ....... now with two projects under me belt I may be ready to try  for somthing  BIGGER in scale  !!     Allways love A chalenge .......... Have A grand day mates   !!         .... davey...
