What is a Sapper? This versatile genius condenses the whole system of military engineering and all that is useful and practical. He is a man of all work of the Army and the public ready to do anything or go anywhere, in short, he is a Sapper.

Fired one at Duxford about 25 years back as part of a display - though only with home-made blank cartridges.

Holts had some similar toys up for auction last year http://www.full-bore.co.uk/viewtopic.ph ... lts#p55914
Mind you, something like that could tempt me to shoot out to 1000 and more! :lol:

How accurate would something like this be at 1000 yards?
I know exactly how accurate the modern 35mm Bushmaster is however that is not a direct comparison.

According to this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3.7_cm_PaK_36 you should be able to hit a 2m x 2.5m target, which will do me!

Re: something different
A friend/co-worker had quite the collection of heavy iron. he is now deceased. I visited his barn several years ago and took some photos. Everything was in live condition although the 88mm flak gun looked like it had some issues. He had a couple 25mm French AT guns that he and his buddies popped away with on the farm. He also had an M5 tank with live 37mm main gun that he blasted away with. Everything was sold off after his passing.
