I like the big cannon. Read about it years ago.

I had to follow the comment about getting it past number four, changing the slide number in the web address. I had seen everything but number one, the Russian cannon, and the last one, the shoulder fired missle.

One I've seen in a book was a 50 caliber single shot black powder pistol, looked to be smaller than an original Deringer, but still wouldn't outdo the Heizer DoubleTap, I guess.

* 2 NAA Guardian .32ACP
* 3 Zastava M70 .32ACP
* S&W 15-22 Sport (.22LR AR)
* 2 Ruger SR22 .22LR pistols

I wonder how the 'doubletap' is selling?, anybody got one?
