    As to Cannons well i am just totally amazed dept of HS has not put an end to people being able to purchase them.
    You do not buy a function gun. so it is not looked upon as a weapon until you drill the touch hole.

    Chuck can you actually fire anything out of that barrel or is it just used to make a noise with a little black powder.
    Anything that will fit down the barrel can be shot out of it.

    If so where does one have to go to fire the thing. I am presuming no neighborhood is going to allow a "9 o clock and all is clear" kind of shot once a day
    Me I go out in my front yard. I mean really who's going to complain about the guy with the cannon across the street.
    What sort of price did this cannon barrel go for?
    This one was in the 400 range

    maybe you should bring it with you to michigan, and I could borrow it.
    I reread village code 5 times, and it says nothing about discharging a cannon towards my neighbors house.
