I saw these things at the local gun show....they are accurate scale models down to a few thousandths of an inch... totally impressive...
The 1863 Parrot shoots a 1" lead ball...that will bury itself 2 feet into a dirt embankment when fired from the cannon, backed with 360 grains of Black Powder...
The Howitzer and Napoleon each shoot a golf ball sized projectile..
I would love to have one of these on display in a den or office...
