Why?

What are the ballistics like? The range? Is there anything that this can
kill that a .50 or a .30 can't with one shot? Keep in mind, you'll be
getting back up off your ass after the first round misses, while your
game/target runs for cover.

The likely target would be an enraged bull WW1 tank.

For civilians those are just toys, of no more practical use than bass boats.

Want to pack an even bigger gun?

The first mention of the Cone Zone G

An actually pretty effective weapon when properly employed. And with a
load of flechetts...nasty nasty nasty.

I saw an entire NVA squad once..frozen in time. Stuck to trees..like wax
figures. It was quite odd. Nice!..but odd...

One could not be a successful Leftwinger without realizing that,
in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers
and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are
not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.
