CIVIL WAR GUN SOUNDS!
A sound system is available which allows recorded gun sounds from Civil War Cannon to be broadcast from hidden speakers located near your Civil War gun emplacement. The sounds are triggered either by a person passing by the gun emplacement or by the push of a button on a nearby stand. The sounds can also be triggered by a wireless remote 'clicker.' The speaker system is rated at up to 100-watts which means the gun sounds can be heard up to 2000 feet away. The system is 'weatherized' and can be hidden in (available) fake rocks. The electrical requirements are either common 120 volt household power or by rechargeable batteries. In addition to Civil War gun sounds, any other recording can be played such as a voice greeting or music, etc. Please call (804-694-5805) for additional information and current pricing.
