3d model of Kim's Gun (Zamzama Toap or Bhangianwala Toap)

This gun, one of the largest ever made in the sub-continent, was cast at Lahore along with another gun of the same size in 1757 by Shah Nazir (a metalsmith of the former Mughal viceroy Muin-ul-Mulk), under the directions of Shah Wali Khan, who was prime minister in the reign of the Afghan King Ahmed Shah Durrani.[2]

This is an approximate 3d model of that Gun.
