Just a bigger and more expensive version of this one that shoots 700 each 10.5 grain steel balls and is quite man portable and when broke open the 1.5 pounds of C-4 filler can be used for improvised demolitions and heating up your morning cup O'Joe.........

Yeah, but unlike a Claymore, this thingy doesn't have a backblast. I can think of uses...

You got that right. Anyone who knows there gun history knows that these types of guns were build back in the 17 & 1800s

The first that I can think of. Was a flintlock that was loaded the same way. Charge projectile with a touch hole were each charge was. And you slid the lock back for each shot.

But one of the things wrong was. If you did not have a good seal between each bullet in the barrel. After the first shot the flame would set the one off behind it after some delay. Like a Roman candle.

No knew ideal hear just an upgrade.
