I have the need for a mortar,I want to buy a complete unit from someone in the N.C.- Va.- S.C. states so that I can get some training also. I live in central N.C. if there is anyone that has or makes these type mortars please let me know. I am new to this site but a shooter form NSS-A told me I might find what I'm looking for here.
Thanks,

Buffalo58 -

Welcome to the board!

There are a number of folks here that make them, some in your area too.

Beer can caliber is good - easy to find ammo.

It is too bad that you don't live out west. I go to gun shows with cannonmaker, who has a link on this page - Neff Cannons. I am Rick's brother-in-law.

We are making an instructional DVD for the firing of all of his products.

Beer Can/Soda Pop Can mortars are awesome. We have fired blanks and cans.

This is my first post on Graybeard. I have been a lurker for almost a year. I really like this site.

Cannonlover,

Doesn't Rick sell a beer can mortar?

Yes he does. At the Salt Lake Gun show we call it a soda pop can mortar on Saturday and a beer can mortar on Sunday.

It is a 1/2 scale Coehorn that is completely to scale but the inside of the barrel.
