Just in yesterday, a .75 cal Dahlgren which has been reworked by Dom to have a Barbette carriage and slide, very cool.  He never ceases to amaze!  Click on 2nd pic to play

The neighbors are used to it, also fire off half scale stuff and mortars out front.  Does seem to make the UPS guy a little cautious though.
