Meet the Pocket Artillery Mini-Cannon.
That's right, you can actually buy a 2-inch muzzle-loading desk cannon that uses black powder to fire a micro munition the length of a football field.
Now you can unleash your inner Napoleon anytime -- even while sitting at the office.
The process is simple to anyone who has watched "Master and Commander" or "Pirates of the Caribbean."
You start by inserting the fuse, and a half-pea sized amount of black powder into the stainless steel mini blaster. Then you pack the tiny munition into the barrel.
Keep in mind it may be considered a weapon in your state, is generally classified as an antique replica firearm, and it actually shoots BBs. This pint-sized artillery piece could definitely poke an eye out, and is clearly not for kids.
Once you light the real 2-mm fuse, it’ll launch .177-caliber BB’s up to 100 yards.
