    I was mortar section leader in the USMC infantry. You should really think about making a round baseplate for that thing with a little socket joint in the middle to seat the end of pipe and then it won't fall over and you'll be able to control the round. That mortar could have fallen over right before the round fired. Even with a baseplate an incorrectly set mortar will fall over. I've seen it with my own eyes. Be safe please.

      As a Tanker (Army version) way back in the early 1980s and assigned to the only "Combat Armored Cavalry Troop" assigned to and attached to the 194th Armored Brigade (Separate) then stationed at Ft. Knox, KY somebody (wisely I think) decided that regardless of MOS we had to cross train on other weapon systems. I was picked to CT with our "Mortar Maggot" section. Over time I discovered that everything you mentioned in your comment is/was on point. After a bit of training, I became very comfortable with the 4.2 mortar....Right up until we blew the hell out of a chicken house on a farm bordering Camp Shelby, Mississippi. Our Section Sergeant had been ordered, by the Butter Bar in charge, to use half a cheese charge too many which resulted in a bunch of dead chickens and a pissed off farmer.

As long as these guys demonstrate their intent to do business, the ATF can't really harass them because they don't want to lose their jobs. Of course, if the ATF, just like the FBI fabricated fake criminal crap on Flynn, wants to make a criminal conspiracy on some no-bodies (not related to Trump), they can at the risk of ending up as somebody's girlfriend in a Federal prison.

    For future reference you can also use expended dry chemical fire extinguishers for your projoes. That will give you a thicker shell, You might also want to use some friction tape around the base of the "warhead" ti act as a gas seal, just be sure it still slides smoothly down the "cannon tube" and be sure to use some lubricant on the tape, like vaseline or axle grease. The round will go further and higher. Just a suggestion from an Old Ordnance Warrant Officer.

    • @44R0Ndin
      @44R0Ndin 3 года назад +45

      Pretty sure the idea here wasn't to replicate the ballistic characteristics of the improvised mortar rounds, instead the focus is more on the terminal effects of the warhead.
      If they were looking to simulate the ballistics it might be possible to do it much easier (and much more consistently than the real thing) with a pneumatic cannon.

      yes and no, at this point they're so good at making them that they've got their machining processes and tolerances down to a T, and are finally capable of making accurate homemade weapon systems.
      though if you're gonna use sights, take some off of battlefield pickups of mortars from the army, but at that point you may as well just take the entire mortar/artillery piece and make the rounds for said cannons yourself, rather than the entire cannon plus the rounds. to each their own I suppose.

    One of my friends was into buying antique nautical stuff. He had a few cannons. One of which he took out to Glamis. Coors beer cans fit perfectly in this cannon. So he melted a few other cans and poured them into the coors can and topped it with an eye bolt. He then tied about a 100' nylon rope to the eye bolt and achored it to a motorcycle trailer away from everything. He put about an ounce of black powder in the cannon and lit the fuze.
    The next thing we knew there was just a piece of rope tied to the trailer. The projectile was gone. There was some campers about 3 or 4 miles away in the direction he aimed it. A few minutes later some smoke started coming up from them.
    He was all worried he hit one. But it turned out they were just as stupid and set one of their own campers on fire. He never found the projectile.

    You can get a pretty good estimate of the mortar range by extrapolating the Civil war data for the 12 pdr,20 pdr and 30 pdr Parrott rifles. Wind resistance from the higher angle of attack will reduce the range but not by much and test firing will allow adjusting the firing tables

    When we were kids, about 10 or 11 years of age, my brother and I made a mortar out of three tin coke cans placed one on top of the other and held together with electrical tape. The top and ends of the first two cans we cut out. The third can we only cut out the top leaving the bottom of the shaft with its rear intact. We then bored a small hole at the end of the mortar to insert propellant which in this case was simple alcohol! As simple as it was, the mortar held together for several discharges using alcohol. The force of the blast was enough to send a tennis ball about 200 feet at about 80 mph!
    Not long after that, we attended a fourth of July party at which our Uncle provided live M-80's (Quarter sticks of dynamite). We took the M-80's home and decided to try them out in our home made mortar! Our first attempt using an M-80 was successful and in fact the tennis ball was propelled so high that we could not see it. When it landed on our street the tennis ball bounced an incredible 20 or 30 feet into the air. Our neighbor was observing our "blasting" and at his insistence we mounted the mortar onto the truck bed of his old truck to reduce the chance of injury in the event of an "accident!" We then reloaded the mortar with a 2nd M-80 and lit the alcohol fuse. And then "whamo", the mortar flew into a thousand pieces and the tennis ball only went 20 feet into the air. When we checked further, we found that the explosion blew a hole five inches wide into our neighbor's truck bed! In fact, my brother and I were very lucky that we didn't seriously hurt ourselves. Our uncle would have been arrested today if anything serious occured!

    The only time I've experienced mortar fire as I was a flyer, we were establishing a forward operating base later to become leather neck. I was a pilot in the C130-J adaptive super herc and on that flight were jato in forklifts and water purification systems.
    Mortars are terrifying. The birds were sitting ducks on landing, so we had to land empty and haul ass out of there as the insurgents put holes in the airframe within seconds of being in range.
    It was land, brake like hell, spin around dump the cargo seal up, spin up the props ignite the jatos and pray like hell as your guts get mangled while climbing to 20k within a minute and half.

I was a 12B in the US Army and had multiple tours in Iraq. I was part of the invasion force of 2003, and participated in a lot of the locate and destroy efforts during '03 after the "war time mission" was over. My Battalion (54th EN BN) were all over the Al Anbar province during that time. Now this was my first video I've watched from this channel BUT I guarantee, it will not be the last until I"ve caught up with the whole collection. Thanks for the visit down memory lane.

The reason a PRIG would not be classified as a black powder cannon is that the bore diameter is greater than 1/2 inch, and that the means of ignition being a battery would place it into the destructive device category. Notice the means of ignition on black powder cannons is a fuse, because a mechanical ignition would require registering them as destructive devices. Now, I'm not a laywer, and this is my very limited understanding of the rules about this. Your mileage my vary.

    Gday lads.
    The most reliable and safe ignition is a Diesel engine glow plug mounted in the bottom. Using a standard car battery to heat it up. By placing a piece of painters tape over the bottom of the round and dropping the round down the tube the glow plug burns through the tape instantly and ignites the loose black powder. You can hang rounds all day
    Also if you want to get really fancy you can mount and outer sheath and weld it up water tight with a nut welded on the top. Fill her up full of water as a water jacket to prevent over heating and will handle any pre mature detonations.
    So I’ve heard

    When I saw your hand tip away while you were holding the live, impact fuse equipped round, my heart jumped. It was most likely a larger weight than could've slipped easily from your hand in hindsight. As a word of love and concern for you and your work: I'm far from any professional, but I've seen a lot of complacent people get hurt in a split second.

    Sand Bags. or bury the front "bipods" or tack weld perforated strapping on the bipods and use some tent stakes to keep the mortar from moving so much. Drill pilot holes on the upper end of the "Bipod" stand/rods and use cotter pins to secure it to the tube. I'm only an 11b, so I think an 11C Mortarman could offer some better advise. All in all, This looked awesome. I made a 5 foot catapult for my kid 18 years ago and had some mixed results before I got it to work : ) This is true Dad stuff right here. Nice work.
