Cannon Chatter

 President Biden quote from yesterday:

"The Second Amendment didn't say you can own any gun, you can own any weapon. You couldn't own a cannon when the Second Amendment was passed."

I pondered over it, and then looked around. 

Yeah, you can buy a cannon.  I won't suggest that it's in 4-star shape or capable of being dragged off to some conflict in Central America. 

Would a regular guy go and buy one?  No.  I'm pretty sure that most wives would put their foot down and say it's just a dust collector.

Fake cannons around?  I would imagine that throughout the US....there's probably a thousand crappy cannons in existence....made by 'Marty' in some garage operation....manufacturing ten to twenty of these with some Hispanic labor help.

Grant's Pass, Oregon.
At the Sportsman Park, at our combined 'Machine-Guns Suppressors Cannon' celebrations, a bunch of dang fooles always bring their home-built bowling-ball howitzers.

I can say with some certainty, those are probably not a relic from our distant Colonial past...
