Winchester announces Dunlap Cannon Co.’s limited production run of 250 Winchester Model 98 signal cannons will be available in 2024.
First debuted in 1903 by Winchester Repeating Arms Company, the Winchester signal cannon is a breech-loading cannon that fires 10-gauge shotshell blanks. With its blued steel barrel and cast-iron carriage, these cannons became fixtures at celebrations and maritime events across the nation.
“With over 120 years of tradition, these signal canons have become icons of American craftsmanship and the legendary Winchester brand,” said Jason Gilbertson, Director of Marketing for Winchester Ammunition. “We are excited about Dunlap Cannon Co.’s introduction of what we expect to be a very successful licensed product.”
The Winchester Model 98 signal cannon will be exclusively produced and sold by Dunlap Cannon Co. and is made entirely in the United States. Each cannon is meticulously crafted with American sourced raw materials and assembled with the unwavering precision and quality that defines the legacy of Winchester.
