Bombard ,photos by Bill Curtis.
This very large gun is made in two pieces, chase and
breech, the two parts screwing together. The breech is shorter and of
slightly smaller diameter than the chase. Both parts are cast with
prominent double mouldings at either end which are joined longitudinally
by sixteen crosspieces to form an equal number of sockets for the
insertion the levers used in screwing or unscrewing the two parts. The
rest of the length is divided by rounded mouldings, five on the chase and
three on the breech. The surface between the outermost of these mouldings
and the prominent mouldings at the ends is filled with two interlocking
bands of formalised flower or leaf ornament, one raised, other sunken. The
muzzle is inscribed in Turkish in relief: СHelp O God. The Sultan
Mohammed Khan son of Murad. The work of Munir Ali in the month of Rejeb.

Thanks to Alexander from Kiev for pictures of the guns in the Kiev-Pechersk fortress XI-XIX c.c. Some of them seem to be models, however, there are true guns of the Russian Empire XVIII c. (1,2) . Also, there are photos of the guns of the civil war in USA (1,2 and 3).
