Well, I will tell you Fernando, that this was by no means a bank-breaking purchase .

I can't imagine someone going to so much trouble for such little money .

So, if it is a Fabrication Moderne I will not wince .
It will be fun on the 4th of July with a small firecracker dropped down the barrel .

These are found buried in the fields all over Europe; no ?
