I'm rather convinced that it fires 105mm howitzer rounds, but he assures me it's only firing normal 10mm ammunition. These pictures were taken with my new digital camera, a SiPix SC-1300. It has a feature that lets you take 4 pictures (sans flash) in 2 seconds, by hitting the button once. I couldn't get the timing right to get any of Jeff popping shots off, but these four are of me firing--taken expertly by Jeff.

Note the massive recoil and muzzle flip of this thing. I'm no trained shooter, and I'm sure that's part of it, but my recovery time was a lot longer than I'd really like.

It was a full two seconds before I had the gun re-stabilized and was ready to squeeze off another shot.

I'm sure my friends who are actually GOOD at shooting (shown above, sans Jeff--sorry, man, I didn't get a picture of you!) will happily tell you that it only took me two full seconds because I'm a girly man. That's probably true. I'm not a big guy, and I have to admit I prefer 9mm and even .22 to larger cartridges.
