Very impressive. I like the latch on the end of the chamber, very clever. How much does it weigh about? or did I miss that somewhere?

Very nice!!.I love the square tubing!!
The breechloader is a piece of art.

On the next cannon, I hope you finish everything.By that I mean sanding everything down, giving it a paintjob, etc.

I love metal, but I don't really like combustion.
It would be nice to see you try a powerful pneumatic.
