I put this slideshow together to show the item to a friend as an offer of trade, since he has something I've wanted for about 10 years. I had to wait until the "new toy" syndrome wore off before making any moves on it, timing is everything. If and when I get his item, I will let you know what that is.
The model complete with limber is 34 in. long, barrel is 10 in. long, about .50 bore. I think it is probably about a 1/6 scale model. Wheels are 7.5 in. dia. It is about 9.5 in. hub-to-hub. The design on the breech is a pattern of lightning bolts radiating out from the vent. What does that mean?
This is a slideshow, put cursor on what you want to see larger, and click on it to enlarge it further.
