I am new to this site. That said here it goes. I am interested in making (scratch) the sims Dudley dynamite gun 1898. Yeah I know it is at least sixteen years before WWI, but my interests are in the Spanish American war! What I would like to obtain some -where are possible blueprints drawings and photos of this gun.
I know two (2) are in cuba,but are any in the states?
Allan Hello, its great to find some one into the Spanish American War, Thats rare!!!!, I have some pictures, and I belive a drawing,I will look them up. As far as to weather or not there is one left in America, I am not sure, Have you tried the Patton Museum?, I know they have a lot of old artillery. Do you want this information emailed to you? If so go to my article on this site French Panhard, and click on my name, it will give you my email address. All the Best Tim R.
