<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 320180, member: 54"]Thanks, could well be as you say, I’d guess a full-sized Spanish 12 pounder bronze gun barrel of similar design to this model might weigh something like that number of Libras, I’ll do some checking. Often model cannon barrels are marked with the actual weight of the model barrel, but then we’d be looking at abbreviations for ounces in Spanish in addition to any full pounds, and the various weight units should be recognizable as separate fields of figures. There’s only one unit given here, Libras.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
