WWII would have lasted a month...

Assuming they we're each, easily, lugging around fridgepressors
And could muzzle-load really damn fast.

@ BTB
Thanks

Yea, like you said, the recoil is massive. Wich is good in my opinion

I do still think that a 1800gr 1.02cal LRN Slug is too soft. Like JRS said, a much lighter harder projectile like a steel bearing is needed for max penetration. But as far as stopping power, this will sure do the job!

Another thing, if (a person) woud wear that helmet and someone shot you like I did, even though it wouldn't penetrate, youre still killed by the massive shock/impact.
Now that is a nice story

I was aware of that Girandoni-inspired resistance rifle.
Maybe I should give it a try one day..with a balanced hammervalve...and forced blowback loading mechanism....
My bet is the partisan rifle is less powerfull than Jacks slug-lobber.
It would have made a neat underslung for it..

@BTB
Yea, I do think my airgun is more powerful, but will not be as popular as that homemade airgun.
Oh and another thing..
What text (name) should I put on the barrel support?
I am going to make the letters with letter stamps.
Dutchy
or
Made in Holland
I will paint the barrel support black and the letters red.

The firing dutchman...Is that like a guy that fires people??
This economic crisis is getting to us.
How about just this at the front:
Eat this!
Or..You feelin' lucky?
Or
" 9mm sucks"
Seriously..you should either go with the cannon's name, or just use " Made in Holland"
Now for a cool name.
