I can put you in contact with a carriage maker. Cannon's barrels are cheap, carriages are not.

Here is a link to the Pack Parrot carriage that Michael Elledge made for my wife barrel. The barrel is golf ball bore and made to scale and North South Skirmish Association safety standards.

Scroll to the bottom of the page to see her gun.

Here is another Mt. Howitzer carriage. Cannon Artillery & Carriage Reproductions-Michael Elledge-Houston,TX

He also built the carriage for my Inch bore Napoleon.

Look closely at the pictures at all the hardware Michael made for this carriage, that explains the cost.

Here is a carriage he did restoring my Lapan cannon.

You can get plans from Antique Ordnance Publisher Antique Ordnance Publishers - 2020 Catalog Sheets Look at plan set number 25. If you have metal working and woodworking skills you can build your own carriage.

You can buy the wheels, they are not cheap. Do not scrimp on wheels cheap wheel look ugly and will fail you. Get wheels with pipe boxings and axles with 14 spokes. This where i get mine. Cannon Wheels - Custom Wagon Wheels

Golf balls, kid stuff!. Get zinc round ball. Zinc Cannon Golf Ball Mortar ~1.67" with gates- You clean and grind These are recoverable and reshootable. Expensive, yes. But once you have used them you will not give Golf balls asecond look.

Who made you cannon barrel?

Biden also said all you need is a double barrel shotgun and step out on the balcony (which i dont have) and let loose both barrels, but then the perps can shot back and im out of ammo in the gun to defend myself.
I want a double barrel but the bastards say a 13” gun isn’t legal. Effective but not legal ?

I want a 32 pounder and a couple of swivel guns for when the ATF comes calling. Can you imagine how much rock salt you can fire out of those?
