This is the most ridiculous thing I ever seen !!! How is this for specialized .
The golf balls surprised me the most.
Tell me about it . But when that 7000gr. slug bent that barrel and kept right on going into 2 pieces out the back of the safe I was like
Flechettes are usually 2" long +/-. I have a 60" LOA (44" bbl) rifle and a 58" LOA (42" bbl) smoothbore. They are on the walls as no normal safe will hold them. Longarms belong on the wall, anyway.
Holy Smokes !!! Thats a incredible piece man thats amazing. Wonder what the objective goal of such a weapon was in that day and time ?
Market hunters used them at the end of the 19th century (notably on the Chesapeake Bay) to take out dozens of waterfowl on the water (not in flight). The punts were little, flat and usually camoflaged boats, like 4’ wide kayaks, usually covered with cut grasses.
Oh, and they also work well on Graboids.
Wow. Makes me think of giant katanas (nodachi) used by infantry to fight cavalry. I’ve seen one whose blade was over 7 feet long.
Wow that looks like he wouldnt be able to get that back in the scabbard
The size of nodachi varied a lot. I think the record was 12’4". Often an assistant was needed to sheathe and unsheathe the blade.
Good Grief
Sounds like you have studied up on those type swords. Or are we talking from first hand experience in sword or sword collecting ?@MusashiAharon
I wish I were stacked enough to own one, but I’m not and I don’t have one. This is just from what I’ve read in English when I visited Japan, and stuff I’ve read online since.
Those guys from pawnstars used to get samurai swords in all the time some fakes some real deal worth like 10-30k
Now dont let that discourage you. If you get a inheritance from a long lost rich relative and dont know what to do with it . Just remember Me encouraging you and send me
The nodachi or odachi were swords meant to be used out in fields against cavalry units or horsemen. Normally the samurai using them would have had a sword bearer or servant carrying the sword so the samurai could pull the sword out easily and use it. The closest thing the Europeans had would have been the claymore or zweihander style two handed swords.
