    I had one of these as a kid - but it wasn't anywhere near $150 (amazing inflation). It's body was made of two shells of really heavy cast iron and a decent milled barrel. I used to plug the end with acorns and shoot them around, going deaf in the process (this was the 60s, so it was allowed)

    yeah i built one awhile ago it worked great. but when i modified it to use pure oxygen and propane then it became a real noise maker.
