Hello
Works in Rhinoceros 3D
I have a lot of experience with this program.
Here another example :)

Here the French cannon 12 pounds Gribeauval system :)
I did it for the purpose of creating documentation for reconstructive group that wanted to build a cannon on a scale of 1:1
Of course, use of historical sources

sorry for my english

I don't know much about field artillery and was wondering what the purpose of the secondary mounting location for the barrel? Is it used when the gun is being transported? Just curious.

It probably let them standardize a bit on carriages.  Use the rear trunnion mount for a longer gun.  These barrels are pretty darn heavy and not something you just lift up and move.
