Richard,

You can't just leave it at that tell us more.  How did you make it?  what's it made from?  How's it fire?

Details, Sir, details.  

Post more pictures of the details please.  (try to keep them under 7.5 inches ore 540 pixels wide, so us poor people with older computers can see and read about you gun.

I saw the pictures of the porjectiles.

Cool!!

:lol:  Hey, Richard! I found this board last night and just saw your post here. Ironically enough, I found it because I followed a link that YOU had posted on another web board. I'd recognize that self-propelled artillery piece any day!

Glad to be here.
