Where to find a cannon

[AlaskanInTexas]

I have been pondering the idea of having a full-size replica cannon in my front yard (out in the country). Something circa civil war times. It doesn't need to be functional - think of it as art. Any ideas on where to find such a monstrosity?

Just so happens I saw this earlier today on Texas Gun Trader.
Not a "full size" cannon, but apparently it goes bang!

That looks like so much fun! You see the cannon flip when fired in the video.

One of the best is probably Steen Canons out of Kentucky but expect to pay at least $10,000 for gun and carriage.

Depending upon your skills you could just get the barrel and build the rest. It's the cheaper of the two parts.

I think there's an old one down in Hutto.

Replica cannon are expensive, Steen as previously posted is a great source. Why not build your own? I helped a friend build a non-firing display replica out of painted thick wall pvc, and scrap wood, closet rod and galvanized sheet steel. Took a couple of weekend and about $200.00.

You mean like this?

Just tell the government your in a drug cartel, they'd prolly sell you one.

Although it is not a full size replica, Academy does sell a mini cannon kit.

I have a .78 Napoleon III cannon replica. It goes bang AND punches holes. Not for sale though. About 1/3 scale I think.

Edited to add scale.
