Trial report on Guthmann gun and twelve inch rifle effects
The board finds the Guthmann gun impacts would not endanger a battleship and the system is not effective against armored vessels. In contrast, shots from the twelve inch rifle would cause serious damage to a battleship’s buoyancy, interior mechanism, and armament. The rifle’s destructive effect exceeds prior records, and Guthmann’s system is not recommended for U S public service or further experiments.
