any ideas what this is?
« on: March 04, 2017, 05:18:46 PM »
found a few years back and never could find any information, the bottom is cone shaped and has a 6lb solid shot in it. The whole thing is cast iron and fragile. i'm not sure of what letters are on it, other than U S. All help is appreciated.
