Story

Recommended Posts

Not my advert - Found in one of the American RevWar reenactor's publications, posted here pro bono for the community :

"Retribution" is a 2-pdr deck gun/signal gun built on a Muller naval truck. Perfect for landing parties - Capt Squire sent a contingent of sailors ashore in a boat with a small gun such as this to fight in the Battle of Great Bridge. Also perfect for garrison environment. With just 4 ounces of powder, she gets everyone's attention! Smile

For live shooters, six ounce juice cans with concrete or grapseshot exit the bore with amazing force!

She features:

Ductile iron Verbruggen style tube with steel sleeve made by South Bend Replicas

Naval Truck built by Duck Island Cannon Works with 3" white oak Tube is 37" long and weighs 200 lbs.

Carriage weighs 85 lbs.

Easily carried in bed of small pickup - no trailer needed

Well maintained and all firings documented in NPS Gun Book

G. G. Godwin Artillery Bucket
