ROFLMAO
Loaded a chamber of a .80 caliber semiautomatic pistol.
This reporter is as dumb as an ox.

Hand Mortar.

I would not want to be the man expected to fire that baby.

I think the Japanese had a similar weapon in WW II

I think they called it the Knee Mortar. It was meant to be wrested on the ground and aimed by hand.

I would guess that the mortar in your picture would be fired in similar fashion.

[LongElegantLegs]

THAT is the coolest gun, ever.
