What reactivating Gibraltar's coastal guns would require

How quickly could the old guns around Gibraltar be reactivated?

Most would take days because they are seized, and reactivation would also require ammunition and crews able to operate under fire.

Most of the old guns around Gibraltar are described as seized and would need days of work before firing. A few positions are left as uncertain exceptions. Even a usable smoothbore would still need suitable ammunition and a crew able to load and fire it. Familiarity with firing during reenactments would not by itself establish readiness to operate under enemy fire.
