I have an artical by William F Green  that describes the building of a Napoleon Field gun  12 pounder (M-1857)  , with drawings .  and I do believe it fires ,always a plus

Planning on joining in on the field gun competitions over there across the pond Rob?  

If you are, you certainly have a lot more stamina than I do!

So I take it from your silence and lack of response your not actually interested in building a cannon and dont really need plans .

Not that I am aware of Rob, unless you want to count anvil shooting.   

Plenty of civil war reenactments and rendezvous, but nothing like field gun comps. Although Tom does have it out with an old computer hard drive on occasion utilizing his cannon.

Those lads in the Royal Navy certainly earn their pay with the display they put on. They are some tough cookies.
