Actually I don't, and for some reason it's sitting in my brothers house...... So I can't even get a pic, at least not until sometime this summer.... It has a very heavy/thick barrel. No way could you blow it up... Maybe his daughter can snap a pic and send it to me.....

Well I was able to find 2 new old stock 12 round mags for it, now waiting for them to arrive.

Cannons! Don't know if any of you follow Street Outlaws but they did an episode this season were they made one and were shooting bowling balls out of it. Another guy I used to work with took Schedule 80 pipe and would make mortars with it!

I have always got a kick out of the Pawn Star boys, they go crazy when a cannon comes in the shop!

Watch the show all the time. How do you like the CrowMod? I thought earlier he was bad mouthing pro mods when they had to race them....

O'yeah, I have a mortar too. 4". Which means the bore is 4 inches. Takes 2 people to lift it and you still struggle. I've seen mortars shoot bowling balls and oil cans! The problem with oil cans is they tended to tumble went they hit the ground and out of the ringed target.... We just use lead round balls with a 2/3' nylon streamer to pull them out of the ground if it's soft. Sometimes you have to do a little digging.....

We used to build PVC mortars, that we shot hard clay duck pin balls out of, used hairspray and a piezo strikers to shoot them off, had a buddy that every 4th of july he would get out his propane cannon, you would stuff a rag in the end, then torch the flash hole for a really big bang!

cool, now I have to start looking around

she actually wants a full size one LOL

Waiting to see it on the show. Plenty of vids on youtube.
That was one h3ll of a wreck. There are now full videos of it on youtube since the episode aired. Also used to watch Pinks All Out, great match racing.

I think he races it tonite? Ya, he's lucky to be alive... After Boosted got knocked off the list we haven't heard a word from his camp. I wonder if he's off the show? I used to watch Pinks All Out too for awhile..... I like Street Outlaws much better. Pedal to the metal. No sandbagging......

2 hr. season finally tonight. 8PM Central time.

 

[WIMUSKY]

I see that, have it "on hold". No Fat and Furious tonite. That's a good show too....

 

[bonz_d]

Was a decent show tonight. I see they are going to do a special edition on Thurs night with a lot of scenes that were never aired.

 

[WIMUSKY]

We liked it. We plan on watching Thu's show too.... Once Chief gets the Crowmod rollin', nobody will touch him....

 

[bonz_d]

He needs to figure out what's up with that Pontiac and why it's eating main bearings. From what I understand Daddy Dave has a new Goliath in the works also.
Is there such a thing as a Street Pro Mod?

 

[WIMUSKY]

Street Pro Mod? I agree, sounds a little silly.... I heard too that Dave is working on another car. While he waits to finish it he just goes to the top of the list with someone else's car. The guy can drive.........
