Howdy y'all,
I am trying to make me a cannon and well I am looking for a barrel.
Full size mountain howitzer barrel would fit the bill.But anything out there is worth looking at.

You might hit it right by putting out the word (as you have here) on the forums where people active in shooting participate. One in particular is the N-SSA board (also in our list, but a different part of it).

I found a Chinese Model 50 (like the Soviet PPSH-41) quite by accident when talking about my Thompson 1927. Of course when I got it we had to put the cutting tourch to it to make it legal; but what you're looking for is out there - it's just a matter of finding it. (And if you find 2, let me know IMMEDIATELY.)
