Ardessa do some nice 50 cal and 69 cal ones from around £200 upwards, Krankies usually have some of them in.

They are great fun and can be surprisingly accurate once you get the ball and load sorted.

There was a similar one on EvilBay a couple of months back and I missed the chance to snipe it.
Went for under £30

Are you sure W.W?...I thought ones that can actually be fired (having a flash-hole) had to be on an FAC?

Yes, section 1.

Yes they are Section 1
This one was an antique, and I believe as such, was exempt.
Until you wanted to use it as a firearm.
I do wonder if the obsolete calibre condition would apply, after all, it is hardly a conceable weapon - " is that an obsolete calibre cannon in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me ?"

I have one of them, judging on the serial number I have the 3rd one. 2 other members of our club have them too. They are great fun and really well made.

I took a video of us finishing off some Halloween pumpkins a few weeks back. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9d8k77x9xw
