    Credit TFOGGER : Liberals only want things to be "fair and just" if it benefits them.
    Credit Zundfolge: The left only supports two "rights"; Buggery and Infanticide.
    Credit roberth: List of things Government does best; 1. Steal your money 2. Steal your time 3. Waste the money they stole from you. 4. Waste your time making you ask permission for things you have a natural right to own. "Anyone that thinks the communists won't turn off your power for being on COAR15 is a fucking moron."

    Old lamps like that worked off of calcium carbide. Add water and it makes acetylene gas. At first thought, I figured any unburnt gas would drift down into the action. The idea of touching off 40 grains of BP behind a 69 caliber ball with a barrel full of C2H2 would be fun to watch. (From a distance) But after some thought, I figure having a heat source under a BP barrel would be an even worse, bad idea.

    Ahh... That makes sense. The risk is less over than under.

    I too was thinking some fuel might spill out into the action from above. But a cook-off is probably a bigger risk.

    Might be fun to watch at dusk drawn from an AR holster.

    Crazy, 2" barrel. That the gas line extends farther than the barrel is just kinda nuts. I'd like to see the target though, and also would consider wearing gloves when shooting it!

    Of course, the real consideration is where the hell are you supposed to hang all your cheapchineeshit® with no rail?
