Look what followed my deuce home today - Big Guns...

[surfdog]

Just getting the trucks ready for parades tomorrow.

I will end up towing the howitzer in the parade but the Long Tom will go behind a M4 High Speed tractor for the parade route.

Neither gun is mine but they sure are purdy!

Do you think they would miss one?

If you can lift it off the pintle hook by yourself, you can keep it....

[surfdog]

Just give me the grid coordinates and I'll take care of it from here.

 

[Flyingvan911]

Nice guns. That long tom is beautiful. I'd love to see it fire in person.

MMMMMMMMM........artillery.

 

[Ord22]

shoot, move and communicate!!

If I may, who owns the artillery? Museum of maybe VFW?

 

[mistaken1]

Probably uncle sam (loaned to the VFW).

How does one acquire a non-functional replica for show (besides building one yourself).

Not me. But I believe they are in private hands of a collector.

How often do those come up on GL?

I am sooooooooooo jealous! Hmmm, and to think one of my neighbors hates the idea of a deuce being parked in my drive... I'd LOVE to see the look on their face when they got home from work to find the barrel of the long tom jutting out over the street.

 

[Blood_of_Tyrants]

Man, THAT is what I need for tailgaters.

 

[Blood_of_Tyrants]

BTW, it is legal to own big guns like these. But you have to register them as destructive devices and each artillery shell has to be registered also.

 

[onegmjack]

Would be nice to have one or two for parade or 4th of July!

 

[Derrickl112]

do you have any idea how much a LongTom goes for these days?

I'll take you up on that offer. Now, i just gotta find a place to hide it
