Original Item: Only One Available. Just one look will convince you that this is just about the most attractive ORIGINAL late 18th or early 19th BRONZE Ship's Model Howitzer, which comes with its original wooden carriage with Brass/Bronze wheels that would not create a spark.

The Bore is 1/2" and the tube length is 7". It is engraved on the top with a "stand of arms" somewhat now worn. The model is just 9" in overall length but is very substantial and HEAVY. There is nothing more to say but that this is by far the most impressive and oldest original Ship Bronze Cannon model we've ever seen. It even has the correct Nelson era elevating system of a wooden wedge to higher or lower the Cannon Barrel's trajectory to near or distant targets.

Most impressive, and ready to display.

NOTE: International orders of antique firearms MUST be shipped using UPS WW Services (courier). USPS Priority Mail international will not accept these.

IMA considers all of our antique guns as non-firing, inoperable and/or inert. Title 18, U.S. Code, Section 921(a)(16) defines antique firearms as all guns made prior to 1899. This law exempts antique firearms from any form of gun control or special engineering because they are not legally considered firearms. No FFL, C&R or any license is required to possess, transport, sell or trade Antique guns. All rifles and muskets sold by IMA that were manufactured prior to 1899 are considered Antiques by the US BATF (United States Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms). Therefore, all of IMA's Antique guns may be shipped to all US States and most nations around the world.

These antique guns are not sold in "live" condition. They are sold as collector's items or as "wall hangers". Any attempt at restoring an antique gun to be operational is strongly discouraged and is done so at the risk of the customer. By purchasing an antique gun from IMA you thereby release IMA, its employees and corporate officers from any and all liability associated with use of our Antique guns.

Pre-1899 Manufacture, no licenses required, allowed to ship to almost any deliverable address across the globe. Please note that for international shipping, these MUST be shipped using UPS WW Services.
