MATS Sec the NEW 111" Wheelbase jnavar gun of a model current 1 150 years ago has been presented to the Museum of Northern British Columbia by Jack Scott, provincial forest ranger, on th? j Queen Charlotte Islands who , believes that it was once mount- 1 ed on a British warship. Because it is made of cjst , iron, a metal notable for its re-1 si.stance to the ravages of rust. the back, tapering down to about four inches, then flaring out to better than five inches at the muzzle. The unrifled bore is two inches in diameter, indicating that it hurled a ball of one-pound weight. Method of firing was to ignite a fuse inserted in a firing hole at the back after loading. The gun was given to Mr. Scott by a man at Skidcgate ho found it on the Islands. Two iron legs attached to the trunion Indicate that it was mounted on a swivel, probably on the bow of some navy long boat used for landing on the beaches by some early explorer. , C. E. Cullin, curator of the Museum, says, that the markings on the trunion indicate that it is likely that the gun is of British origin but that he cannot be sure. It is possible, he says, that it may have belonged to some early Spanish explorer who visited this coast. STOTFOLD, Bedfordshire, Q Alan Bygrave and Bernard Allen, army cadets, have invented and built a training gun. They hope to get financial backing to have it patented. TURN ABOUT!
