My first bleg...

Well, aside from Spirt of America...

So, who wants to buy *this* for the Arsenal at Castle Argghhh!...? The grounds could use a Noon Gun.

I'll go looking in my old pictures from 1992. The Peter and Paul Fortress in St. Petersburg, Russia has a noon gun as well. I think I got a picture of it with smoke coming from the barrel.
 
That went for 76 bucks! There must have been room in the Arsenal somewhere.
 
Well, not really. The reserve was not met, so, absent a 'behind the scenes' deal, the item went unsold this time around. Another reason the Armorer declined to bid was the difficulties of transport from Arizona to Kansas. That, and I wanted some loyal, sugar-daddy reader to pay for it! I see where *that* got me! 8^D
