Author Topic: Thanks Armorer77 (Read 844 times)

The new arrival came today. A GB mortar from Ed (Aka Armorer77). That now makes three mortars from site vendors. I only say this to point out if you are new to this forum and you are looking for something else to feed the addiction we all have, check out the sticky at the top of the main page and try the vendors that sponsor this site. They are all great people. Oh... and for the record the three I have purchased from are Irishman (Brooks-USA), Dominiq Carpenter and Armorer77. All three of these gentlemen are top notch. They help you at every stage and they deliver what they promise when they promise. Okay...enough of the advertisement. Smoke and flame pics hopefully tomorrow but here are some shots of what my wife has dubbed "Little Beaver". We shall see if it sticks.

For the record...my wife said its cute. That is a good thing I guess.

Many wars were won with "cute" cannons.

Brokenpole,
It is definitely a good thing; my wife sometimes uses other descriptive terms to label my ordnance, like junk, or the one that really bugs me: "Toys!"

BTW, nice mortar!

Perhaps your wife is being complinentary.

I found this definition of toy:

miniature: a copy that reproduces a person or thing in greatly reduced size

Douglas,
Believe me when I tell you, that all you'd have to do is hear the way she said the word "toys" one time, to come to the realization that she wasn't intending to compliment my treasured artillery models.

Boom J,
All I had to do was let my wife fire my 10 pounder Parrott one time and she was hooked.

Now, cannons rule!

Yeah, I know what you mean, had the same wife for almost 44 years and and I know the tone. just was thinking (hoping for you) that maybe perhaps, youi got a different kind than I got!
