Sure, why not ?

As for buying and owning one; nope. Impractical. Interesting engineering project, but what for ? Too heavy, too bulky, too slow rate of fire, possibly less than safe the way he described the trigger sear release on loading.

But damned interesting.

Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

How about this?



There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

I like those remington 700 muzzleloaders. I think they were originally made for people to hunt during muzzleloading season but still have good accuracy. I used to shoot one of those in Canada but I prefer smoothbore flintlocks or matchlocks.

The club of shoulder fired artillery is sure getting big. That would drop an Elephant Quick.

Rapid fire must be difficult.......

But I suppose you'd need the time to remove the bolt and recoup from the shot anyway.
Not me.
Talk about a 'Rotator cuff' injury.

Stops pieces from a material failure in the gun.

Some of them can, though pistol caliber rounds only, as well as fragments.
