[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 4196229, member: 13337"] I WANT one! Way back in time when people weren't such wimps,,, My father found some steel tubing that he made rifles out of. The tubing was just perfect for a glass marble,,, Patched with some toilet tissue paper. He drilled a fuse hole in the side of the threaded breech end,,, And made a match lock action out of plywood. Unscrew the cap, insert a Black cat fiery-cracker,,, Stuff a patched marble down the muzzle,,, Put a lit cigarette into the "hammer". When you pulled the trigger-hammer cigarette holder,,, It lit the fuse coming out the side of the gun. Then you had to hold on target for a second or two,,, But when it went off that marble came out with some authority. Getting smacked in the butt with one,,, Even at 20-25 yards distance,,, Hurt like the dickens. He would probably have gone to jail now. Aarond . [/QUOTE]
