The appeal of BIG-BANG® Cannons is simple - a scale-model cannon that makes a loud bang and flash, but has no recoil or kick. They've been a favorite from generation to generation. They're a safe substitute for fireworks ... a source of fun at all outdoor gatherings ... a display piece and collector's item ... a family keepsake ... a unique gift for all occasions.

BIG-BANG® Cannons are easy to use. Water, some fresh air, Bangsite® and a spark is all you'll need to fire the cannon.

The "ammunition," Bangsite®, is a nonflammable mix of calcium carbide that "blasts" only when struck with the cannon's firing pin. As promised in an early BIG-BANG® advertisement, it's as "harmless as a popgun."

BIG-BANG® Cannons have withstood the test of time. They're made of cast iron and solid brass from the original patterns, dies and tooling.

Join the generations of customers who are proud owners of this unique American made product.
