There a saluting guns also in Fort Davis

Yeah, they are the naval equivalent of a starting pistol. The Gns in Dun Looighre however, while still saluting guns, could still do a lot of damage.

I remember when JFK turned up, seeing the saluting gun fired on TV. those things are tiny little pop guns.

[Goldie fish]

Saluting guns are a ceremonial gun, used by vessels that have no other form of gun capable of firing a single shot salute.

[Snacker]

Why not??
Were they just a cerimonial thing?

[Goldie fish]

No.
