Let us pray that the terrorists don't get weapons such as this(if they were dependent on their own creativity this is about all they would have... lol). FYI: Yes the word disgrace was misspelled in previous posting but since nobody is watching this video it really doesn't matter does it!!

@blastforyou What are they gonna do? shoot it at someone...

[blastforyou]

@Goldsteinism duuuuuuhhhhhh... They're in uniform and a foreign vessel of a hostile country has violated their territorial integrity(see early posting); damn right they should fire on it. Didn't you ever watch the Beverly Hillbillies, granny and Jethro sure wouldn't let a yankee ship go by without busting a cap on it . But honestly are you all banker and no fun, go buy yourself a sense of humor....geeeessssss!!!!

[blastforyou]

There was a Yankee navy frigate that came by and docked at river street and they had a chance to shoot and didn't ; they're a discrace to the Confederate uniform.

lame......

[callmeshane303]

Losers - could have fitted a paper bag filled with sand, and shot that at full power.

[Tobskybobski1]

Lol, notice there is nearly no recoil for a bloody big gun :P. Must be fixed down pretty damn well.

[notsewn]

@Tobskybobski1 no it's firing a blank, there was no projectile

[LutzDerLurch]

@Tobskybobski1 without a ball in front of the charge, there is literally no recoil.

The Confederate forces were outnumbered 4 to 1 and still almost won

[firstcorps]

Fort Jackson is a historic Fort in Savannah, built in 1808.

[rojadrik]

32 pounds? I wonder if HMS Victory still has her 68 lbs carronades.

[Pfaenningz]
