It seems likely, I've got a bunch of these also, and it seems unlikely
that every cannon which looks like a shooting cannon, that I've got from
an auction lot, would be broken.

Hi Frank,
I disassembled the cannon by
pressing on the two small holes near
the plunger end of the cannon and
that allowed the firing mech to slide
out . Take care to not push in too
hard as it might damage the
tabs.The plastic was obviously
stressed. Sure enough, Inside was a
small white cylinder that blocks the
movement of the plunger. I guess
the next step is to find a correct
spring to use. Anyone out there with
helpful hints?

i guess this was TLGs way of making cannons using the shooter parts and moulds that did not accually shoot. why did tlg stop making shooting cannons? anyone know? a safety issue? (25 years ago, 9-Jul-99, to lugnet.build)
