    I guess that explains why bullets spin through the air. so wouldnt cannons be more effective if we rifled them??

    No, because they are muzzle loaded and shoot round balls...*snicker*

    Reloading would be a mo-fo...as you put it.

    Don't worry, in the event of my untimely death a heart monitor implanted in my chest will signal and detonate nuclear explosives that have been strategically placed on major population centers across the world.

    Or was that the villian from the spawn movie.. :notsure:

    It's one of us anywayz.

    No. Howitzer is a name, not a type. Bofors is also a name, not a type. What you are talking about is referred to as a recoilless rifle, which were manufactured by many companies.

    Stickers. Lots of stickers.
    Or, you could kick it reverse and be a more BAMF. So you be rear mounted by firing forward.

    Or mount it on a swivel and attach it for a 360 degree rotation. I think you should go with a smaller cannon so ammo would be cheaper but you wouldn't have as big of a bang.
