#1: HARP Gun on Barbados [Photos] Author: Neil_Baumgardner, Location: Arlington, VAPosted: Thu Jun 14, 2012 2:41 am ---- It looks like we will be making a trip to Barbados in a couple of months and am considering checking out the HARP gun there. Has anyone on here been there, seen it before?
Would appreciate any recommendations - finding it a little difficult to find exactly how to get to it.

Plus there's a Barbados Defence Force small arms range to get past... If the red flag is up, you dont go past...

I wasnt able to get any data off the HARP Gun breech - but the spare barrel is a Mk II Mod 1 SN 114. SN 111 is at the Washington Navy Yard, while 96 and 100 are at NSWC Dahlgren.
