The guns

Latest comment: 12 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Should "...32 pounder BS cannons...", which appears in the 'Beginnings' section read: "...32 pounder BL (breech loader) [my emphasis] cannons..."?

I can find no link or reference for the former gun.

The 'SBBL 32 pounder' seems to be the nearest weapon on the disambig page except the year (1879), which is not a very good match (1866).

I'm not 100% sure of the 6 inch guns in the 'Designs' either. RASAM (talk) 16:51, 1 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
