    Cannon arrows

    I cant find any pictures :( If you've got netflix, watch the durling pistol episode of weaponmasters. They shoot one of those arrows out of an early cannon basically it is short, fat, and the fletching is halfway up the shaft.

    where to get a truly historic gonne?

    Yes, but rather on the expensive side... I'm looking at the better half of $ 175, Max. But if push comes to shove, I'll give the rifle shoppe a whirl :)

    where to get a truly historic gonne?

    I always ask these silly questions,where to get this, where to get that.... but this one is more or less valid than my other ramblings.... I want either true tannenberg, a tabor, or hackenbuchse like one in the hussite wars. Blueprints would be useful too. Ive turned a gonne before. So let me...

    is it legal to make black powder?

    I'm almost sorry I asked. I'm relatively new to the forum. I'll drop a call to the ATF and get it figured out.

    is it legal to make black powder?

    This is probably a rehashed question.... I live in Hardin county Ohio, I see no laws saying you cannot manufacture black powder, but there are laws against explosives.

    who makes matchlock pistols?

    Is there anyone who makes an affordable tantsuzu? Or a middle eastern matchlock pistol? I have about 4 handgonnes, and some mini (1/72 scale)100yrs war cannons, I want some eastern flair in my collection.
