Look up “Abram Bevier Cannon” on the internet.
He personally owned a cannon which helped protect the settlers from Indians. The cannon was then the largest arm of its time.
Someone please tell beta

Honestly, I never wanted to own a bazooka until beta Male talked about it.
Now I want one.

They were legal, right up to 1968.
You could buy anti-tank guns and anti-aircraft guns through the mail up to the 1968 gun control act.
There was *one* crime committed with a Lhati anti-tank gun that was stolen from a dealer, in an international robbery, before 1968.
No one was hurt. The gun was used to break into a vault.
(The genesis of the movie Thunderbolt and Lightfoot.)
One property crime with a stolen gun, and they were banned for the entire population.
The perpetrator was arrested and sent to prison.

Beatoff Ororke would be crippled with fear and have a nervous breakdown if he ever saw what goes on at the Knob Creek and Big Sandy shooting events. EXACTLY! I am kicking myself for not bringing this up myself! He is simply ignorant.

Was that a Solothurn? Or a Lahiti? I am too young to remember that, but I have seen photos of those advertisements.

want a bazooka. Semi-automatic AR-15s are not military grade. Bazookas are. If you'll settle for a French built, Israeli surplus LRAC that uses the old WWII U.S. 2.36-inch/73mm bazooka rocket, you can get one from SARCO in PA, Item RL006. Around $350. Deactivated, so it'll need a little work, but no big deal.

Besides, they're crew-serviced. Could you imagine what would happen if one hollered "LOAD!!" at one's wife? If I did that, she'd put a 500-round belt in her MG42....

I would rather have a working Panzerfaust. Simple to use and can take down an armored car. Correct, and the recoilless black powder launch cartridge is a thing of simplicity and reliability. We also found that the circa 1943 shaped charge warhead remains remarkably effective to this day, and an improvised Panzerfaust 60 can penetrate 12-14 inches of face-hardened armor plate today, just as it did then.
About $40 to build the launcher, three to four times that for the projectile, depending on your economies of scale.

I want some w88s and a nice assortment of missiles for every occasion.... W84 is a lot more portable, and was formerly fitted to the Davy Crockett recoilless launcher mounted on an M38A1 or M151 Jeep.
Don't ask me how I know.
