Title: Coehorn Mortar
Post by: 24thMichigan on April 27, 2016, 08:43:33 PM

The experts at Steen Cannons recently completed the correct bed for my 24-pounder Coehorn tube and it is now fully assembled and on display in my room.  Very impressed with their workmanship and historical accuracy.  I think it looks really good and I know I'm the only kid on this block that has one of these!

The tube was made in the 80's by Paulson Brothers Ordnance.  I don't believe they are making these tubes now.
