Chris sent me a link to Buckstix.com and the very first thing that I opened was Feral cat hunting with a reproduction Civil War mortar.
Oh. Dear. God.
I was laughing so hard I was in tears........
I'm not going to attempt to post the article and pictures here but I will pass on the link so you can see it for yourself.

A word of caution: If any of you fuckers are at work when you read it, do it on your break. It's Safe For Work, but the laughter coming from your desk will tip the boss off that you're not working on statistics or sales projections.
Ya oughta see what he does to a deer with a mountain howitzer!
ReplyDeleteGo to Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Maryland before it is shut down for good and see the world's definitive collection of armored vehicles and small arms in their private museum...there is everything you could imagine that you have not seen is there...For instance, a two and a half ton mountain howitzer(projectile)just for shooting over the mountains in europe in WWII... A great time, young, old and both!!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, Derek, I've seen all that stuff when Dad was stationed there in 1972. Even back then I was into that.
