[QUOTE="TheDoubleD, post: 3927262, member: 43754"] 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. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.jmelledge.com/PortfolioCustomFiringCannonCarriagesSOLDPG4.html[/URL] Scroll to the bottom of the page to see her gun. Here is another Mt. Howitzer carriage. [URL="https://www.jmelledge.com/PortfolioCustomFiringCannonCarriagesSOLDPG6.html"]Cannon Artillery & Carriage Reproductions-Michael Elledge-Houston,TX[/URL] He also built the carriage for my Inch bore Napoleon. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.jmelledge.com/PortfolioCustomFiringCannonCarriagesSOLDPG9.html[/URL] 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.
