The breech edge is also marked with sharp edged rim. The gun is unique for provision of thick reinforcement rings further engaged with circular handling rings on muzzle end and at the beginning portion of the breech.

At the middle instead of trunnion a thick ring is provided with a stand in form of a shaft with perforated end. The cascabel is provided in form of a thick knobbed rod.
