32-Pounder to the Left and 18/24-Pounder to the Right

I think you can see the difference in overall barrel thickness between the two guns. The 32-pounder is also a tad longer 9.5 feet versus 9.0 feet for the 18/24 Pounder. These are the correct barrel lengths.

In the below Photos, the camera is in the same position on a granite countertop. Note the hand of the Figure to the Right. Small Aside: If you have an Alamo Set-Up, the 18/24 Cannon would be ideal.
