    A long time ago I posted a thread describing the theory of operation and design behind Big Gun style cannons. Not sure where it is now, though.

    When it comes to building Big Gun cannons, you first have to understand the theory of operation, then you can use that knowledge to modify existing cannon designs to meet your specific requirements. Changing number of barrels, magazine diameter, ammunition size, etc. is easy once you know how it's supposed to operate.
