I suggest a statue for a few other reasons. First hasn't Australia, and it is my outsider's observation, has gone dead set against representations of firearms? A genuine artillery piece might rile up a few self-appointed guardians of all that is good and pure. Maybe not right now, but in a decade when the current support fades. Secondly, an artist's commission could be subsidized by more than one level of government - as a public display of generousity. Finally, in my experience, military artifacts on public display are perishable to rust and rot, but also to vandalism. Who would gratuitously break off pieces of 'art'?
