Wasn't that gun intended for use by the Royal Marines from the fighting tops? If it the same gun, the navy discarded it, as the fierce kick threw the Marines off their feet, often, and sent them crashing to the deck🤕😒 Kinda what I thought as far as the look.... Good look though.... The Royal Navy removed it from service in 1804, not only was it a bear to fire, it brought fire to bear on sails and rigging and powder... Reports have it as a veritable blowtorch when fired, the blast would reach 9 feet, (with fully charged barrels that is) I believe the Pawn stars clip was only partially charged.... The last authentic one sold at auction in England, (in firing condition) went for 25k pounds, the 30k dollars they were throwing around on the show as a price would be a bargain if the gun was real and not a reproduction....... Personally if I owned such, it would NEVER get fired.... Worth too much to even let powder near it...

Canute Posted April 16, 2021 Share #788 Posted April 16, 2021 Yes, Peter played the nasty sergeant quite well. The whole cast was quite good. The Cornwell series made me dig out a copy of Napier's history war on the Peninsula, the single volume version thankfully. The writing style of that time was laborious to read, so 1 book was enough. There are much better books with much better scholarship now.

Anyway some news today Shawn the display unit maker has sent my reworked unit out and will arrive (not broken) tomorrow, it is the exact same size (good) and made with toughened glass - so I expect it to be heavier, bad news its coming with the same courier who brought/collected the first one (he better not have an attitude this time) OC.
