Chambly, Fort Chambly

Smoothbore reinforced breech-loading swivel gun, of a kind that was invented in the 14th century.  They were loaded by inserting a mug-shaped chamber already filled with powder and projectiles (technically pieces of metal, and yes stone cannonballs were used as ammunition).  The breech-loading swivel gun had a high rate of fire, and was especially effective in repelling boarders and pirates on ships.  The earliest versions were made from strips of metal held together with reinforcing bands - and the real ones from the earliest voyages of explorers to Canada are quite rare, so the one at Fort Chambly may be a replica.  The Portuguese made great use of them off Canada's East coast.

The 12-pounder SBMLs were used as main guns on the most typical frigates of the early 18th century, on the second deck of fourth-rate ships of the line, and on the upper decks or castles of 80-gun and 120-gun ships of the line. Naval 12-pounders were similar to 12-pound Army guns and considered a heavy field artillery piece.

British ships that were armed with 12-pounders included the Southampton and Richmond-class frigates. The 12-pounder also equipped the castles on razeed ships, where 12 pieces were mounted, and the 22-gun secondary battery of 50-gun fourth-rates. Finally, 30 were installed on the third deck of 90-gun second-rates. (Wikipedia)
