the Royaliste Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 About swivel guns. The swivels for 250 at Dixie Gun Works are made by Hern Iron Works. The factory price is around 143.00. Bear in mind that those are cast iron, generally not bored, and need a tensile steel liner to fire. Bronze guns don't need to be sleeved. An outfit in Fla. have replica H.M.S. Victory swivels, 1 1/2" bore, with liner, for 695.00 Their name is Wild Imports. The style on my ship are cast from the Philadelphia, Rev War style, available for 500.00 each without yoke from Cannon Mania. There are also large swivel guns for 600 or so, but they are full scale and weigh 90 lbs. Thats a lot of weight on a rail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
