We have a busy upcoming show schedule with the Mansfield show May 4th & 5th and Gettysburg again in late June. 2 more shows on the calendar for July and another in August!

This website is a side gig for us fellow hobbyists, and we have full-time "real jobs." Apologies for the lack of updates recently, but we defintely have a lot of good stuff. Much of it is in the process of being cleaned and inerted, but also I will be out of the country for work quite a bit over the next 6 weeks.

So, you know the drill -- if you have things on your want list, please send them into both of us. We're like Santa's elves and constantly working to find good things for our customers. Please copy both of us on your inquiries -- a well-intentioned customer just sent us both separately after the same item which was a huge waste of time, but that movie will have a happy ending nonetheless as he's going to finally get his Whitworth.

Hope to see many of you at one of these shows.

Item Number: A00684

Price: $595

Shipping: Not included

Provenance: US

Type: Schenkl

Size: 4.2in

Sabot:

Fuse:

Book:
Jack Bell Page 362

Location Recovered: Probably non dug

Description:This is the shell for a 30pdr Parrott and weghs close to that, 5lbs more than the book says. I think it is a case shot. Has a wooden fuse plug (not adapter, plug) shoved down in it. These are popular for their distinctive shape and really tough to get. This one is either an early pickup or non dug I think. The fuse threads will clean up easily if you want to put a fuse in it.

This is the last of the big Schenkls I have for sale so don't put off thinking there is an unlimited supply of them coming!
