What about the carriages for them?

Enough of those in the inventory already, it are just the stick-shooting barrels' I don't like, especially when looking at the gunmouth's front when they are sticking out a ship's gunport.
So I decided to replace those barrels on the carriages with the older shooting-system ones, which are also more shiny. Luckily the gunbarrels were still availabe and not expensive!  :love:

i find it ridiculus that all the western cannon parts are still available except the cannon barrel !!!!

I guess too many Western-, US Civil War- or Napoleonic War-fans ordered them in large numbers before, so meanwhile they ran out of stock... I too tried to get a few some time ago (though in a much lesser quantity then the guns above), but indeed they weren't available anymore... :(

you're right, the silver ones match much better with the new hull colour.  The gold ones would blend in too much against that beige hull.

and I don't know why I asked you where that gun came from, as I just realized it's the same gun aboard my red corsair ship (duh moment for me).

I realized something else; in a previous thread it was mentioned the rocket firing guns dont' fit below deck because of the added aiming sight;  this can be remedied by turning the barrel upside down in its carriage.

So, praytell, did you order cannon balls to go with your guns?

and what will u do with the replaced rocket-firing guns now?
Ahoy, Pirates, Hoist the Colours!
