Fire a 5-inch Gun or 40mm Saluting Gun Salute!
Did you know that you can donate to fire either the Battleship’s 5-inch gun or 40mm saluting gun nearly any day and time? We ask for a $500 donation to pull the trigger of the ship’s port-side 5-inch gun, and a $100 donation to fire the ship’s 40mm saluting gun. Don’t worry—we’re not blowing up Pennsylvania. We only fire blanks, but it makes a nice fireball and very loud bang!
*Please note, all specialty tours and experiences must be booked in advance.
