Frequently Asked Questions
Are your cannons considered firearms and do they require special permits?
These signal and saluting cannons are NOT considered firearms and do not require a firearm permit. That being said, they do produce a very loud bang and flash. So NEVER ever stand in front of cannon while firing and NEVER place anything in the barrel during firing. Anything other then the prescribed 10 gauge shells will cause the breech to blow out, which can be very dangerous.
What kind of custom work do you do?
We do anything and everything from custom carriages, starting with customized woods to custom designs, to custom barrels, custom mounting options for your personal boat etc. We are a design firm and use Pro/Engineer for Product development. When we say anything we really do mean anything.
What kinds of services do you offer?
We offer restoration and cleaning services to any cannon, and not just our own, as well as customized carriages, barrels or anything else; please contact us for more information on a specific project you have, giving us all the information on what you need.
