There are some (well, one I could count) naval signal gun used by the sea cadets for gun drills that are at least pre-WWI. The tube is in-the-white gun metal. Before heavy snow cracked the roof trusses at the navy barracks at Dow's Lake, Ottawa, that gun used to be parked in the side of the drill floor - next to the 9 Pound Rifled Muzzleloader, circa 1875 ... beat that!
