Wow, that is wicked cool! My little brass mortar shoots a bb about four feet with 2-3gr of Pyrodex and a firecracker fuse, knocks down little plastic toy soldiers and stinks the whole house up! I'd love to build a much bigger one some day. It would really piss off my obnoxious neighbors. :happy69:

yeah. i have to go to my dads where i have 2100 acres to use before i can safely fire it.
