Somebody’s gotta do one of these on the word “trow” as in “I trow not” (Luke 17:9 KJV).

Back in the day, professional duck hunters used massive black powder shotguns that were made to be fired from a rest in the bottom of their boat (punt) so they were called "punt guns." The largest had a bore of 2 inches, was 14 feet long, weighed 300 lb and fired a pound of birdshot on top of black powder.

They were said to be able to kill 50 birds in a single shot. Worse, the hunters would go out in teams of 10 or 12, arrange their punts in a semicircle with the decoys in the middle and firing in concert they could wipe out an entire flock of ducks. So punt guns were made illegal for waterfowl hunting in the early 1900s.
