a mate and i did this back in the late 90s and also made our own black powder was a lot of fun
made the canon out of brass and we were very surprised at the recoil of the 1.5" one , but when
we got it to hit a plate on the 50m range it was impressive..... very .

Re: Missathon 2016 calibre
the jeep is too small for all that shit, it would be trailer mounted!
I will see what i can find, there was an australian website saying they were making them but they are shut for a few months while moving.
