Pretty cool but I'd love to see the damage down range. That mortar set looks pretty cool but I'd still like to see what happens in the blast zone with shells hitting in rapid succession. I spent quite a bit of time in a field artillery unit and shot 155's and such but never got to to see what happened where the shells hit. That's where the real action is.
 
That is pretty cool. Never knew that there was such a hybrid weapon called a Gun-mortar.

That does not look like the most effective drill.
Could the loader and unloader alternate tasks on each trip back?
Do the empties have to go to the same pile?

Why should a senior man do the same work load as the 'new guy', LOL.

You are probably right on efficiency, bet their is a better way to running the crew.

The empties are clips that get reloaded, so I would think putting them back where the ammo is makes the process work faster.
