In what way was this in any stretch of the imagination sarcasm, tongue in cheek, humor, or irony? It's a flat statement that you wanted to see the punt gun in use back when the only thing they were used for was killing entire flocks of waterfowl for the market. Here's a you tube video of one...

You'd want to see entire flocks of ducks slaughtered in one shot?

During the Civil War regular field artillery was pulled by horses as mules weren't very reliable under fire.

Myself I'd get the Mountain Howitzer. If you make the carriage to the same specs as the original it disassembles into 2 pack mule loads so would be easier to store. The design never had a limber so none is needed.

While the imp on my shoulder may say "Yes!" the moths flying out of my wallet say "NO!"

The measure also says that a gun seller cannot sell the rifle to you until after he is notified in writing from the Sheriff that you are eligible to own a gun. There is no timeline given for how long the Sheriff has to make that notification. Which means an anti-gun Sheriff could drag his feet...
