Re: WWI US 3 inch deck gun info needed
A friend of mine had collected cannon and artillery pieces since he got out of the service in 1945. I was able to get this piece from his collection after he passed on. I plan on stripping the paint and polishing all the brass. Pretty much all of the piece is brass with the exception of the bottom cone mount and the barrel. If you have ever seen the movie San Pebbles with Steve McQueen, then you have seen the same model gun firing on the Chinese. Lee
