Glad to see they've updated their design.  Last time I looked (quite some time ago) they'd taken it off the market for redesign.  New design looks good too!!

1000 yards with a golf ball!!  Par 3?

Well, I called the guy and talked with him. He is in process of upgrading his website and getting ready to start shipping the guns. Not quite ready
to ship cannons yet so no price on the site but he told me it was $1700
complete. I have no connections and don't even know him just passing this info along.

$1700 for that???

Hummmmm, may have jist found meself a new business  :shock:

Looks like the breech plug jist screws in - no pin or other "security device" - not sure I like that.

I also don't care fer his "loading procedure" of dumping loose powder down the barrel with a funnel.

Oh well, t'ain't my business.....
