Originally intended for close‑range defense, it later became the standard saluting gun, firing blank charges for ceremonial duties. It also saw service in launches, picket boats, and harbor defense during the 1914–18 war. Ough’s drawings show the full construction: barrel, jacket, breech block mortise, trunnions, and rifling details (1.85\" bore with 20 grooves).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003ePerfect for:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin-top: 0in;\" type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal; mso-list: l3 level1 lfo3; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003eModel shipbuilders\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal; mso-list: l3 level1 lfo3; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003eNaval history enthusiasts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal; mso-list: l3 level1 lfo3; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003eScratch builders\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal; mso-list: l3 level1 lfo3; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003eCollectors of Norman Ough’s work\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003eShop With Confidence:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin-top: 0in;\" type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo4; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003e30‑Day Money‑Back Guarantee\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo4; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003eFast, careful shipping\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo4; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003ePrinted on quality paper for clarity and durability\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003eThank you for looking Jim \u0026amp; Rose\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vintage Model Plans","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49168588112124,"sku":null,"price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.vintagemodelplans.com\/products\/3-pounder-saluting-gun-printed-scale-drawings-article","provider":"Vintage Model Plans","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
