My friend Mark has always liked the big ones, and he found a new goose gun.

105mm?

Where's the other barrel on that thing?

Mark's New Gun
 
Bruce, I flew about 50 feet behind and 150-200 feet above one of those over the north east corner of Ben Hoa one night around mid-night when it fired. I had just taken off. Fire ball, concussion and noise all at once. I thought the world had ended. Cheers, Tom

Hey Mark, it looks to be missing it's forend.... I just might have one. You want a splinter or a beavertail?

Now, that's a Cutts Compensator. Wonder how many choke tubes are included?

Well I'll tell you the story. The self propelled howitzer is in Offerle, Kansas, on Hwy 50 east of Dodge, where I was this last weekend helping a friend with a party of pheasant hunters. Mark has been out there before and gets a big kick with the name on this cannon, so I thought I would make his day, or at least his minute.
