N.S.- That Coehorn mortar brings back memories, don't it? Again, thanks for introducing me to the joys of blackpowder artillery.

We need a "Certification of Exotic Crat Whacking Technology".

A little something that students of the Accurate Reloading School of Vermin Eradication can hang on the wall over the computer and include in thier resume when applying for the better job positions.

There. You do the artwork. I suggest you use a picture of Birman weeping after he lept upon the Maimed Quair Nymph...I heard Dragon Lady struck a smidgen too soon, and as he was stradling the tippet and facing away from her Highness...she snatched his balls off...

I'm not qualified to write the worst poetry in the universe and would rather not have said poetry included on my resume.

I'd forgotten about those. My daughter finds them highly amusing.

Paula Nacy Millstone Jennings, for those that don't know, is the real life English poet refered to in The Hitchikers Guide To The Galaxy as the worst poet in the universe.
Because of legal restraints her name was given as Paul Neil Milne Johnstone in the book.

That would be a good traveling color. Won't show universal grime as bad as those light colored towels. Those dark matter stains are hard to get out.

Might be fun, but this site is dedicated to accuracy, and hunting crats with a mortar is not very acurate. I'd say load up a cannon with some canister shot and let 'er go. Might as well get em all.

How about a mortar with shell? Cutting the fuse to the correct length would be a matter of some experimentation, but I would be willing to do the footwork....

Hugh, I'm thinking that maybe you never had mortars lobbed your way before? Confused Tellin' ya true, give an experienced gunner a mortar tube and there are few things more accurate. In the case of the 120mm mortar, well, there's a lot of boom too. Eeker

Hi guys! I just found this "small game forum" Wink and I have to say that is NOT what I thought it would be. Having said that, while mortars are nice, don't you think that launching a cat with or shooting at cats with one of these would be cooler than a Coehorn mortar?

Uh oh. Someone stepped in it... Where's PT with a picture when you need him.

Maybe someone hasn't been guarding their password...??? Maybe they got hitched to a PETA chick, furry legs and all, and needed to impress her??? Come on man, snap out of it!

Varmit shooting is fine. Lots of feral cats need to be put down.

Just make it a clean kill.
