Pictures from cannon in production, and as finished.
Previously available from Hern, castings were made from a pattern on loan to the company. After being called back to the owner, we were out of production for a few years. Once again, a wonderful customer was able to provide a great pattern with his woodworking skills in exchange for the first casting cast!
Today’s production is Cast Iron, cast around a 1/4″ wall DOM tubing, w/ flat breach plug. Weighing in at 195#, these big guns ship via truck, and freight charges are driven by current prices of fuel & distance to destination. A commercial address with a forklift will save you money. Upon order & payment for your barrel, you will be contacted by our office to confirm shipping details and provided with a specific quote. You can pay for shipping over the phone at that time, or mail in your payment. $250-$400 is a common range for these shipping charges.
Large guns are not typically kept in inventory – they are cast to order. Typical production times are 6-8 weeks. (last one just sold, Next order will be full 6-8 weeks to ship. June 2026)
