Not bad. I like the big gun shots.

That's one of my fav's as well. I am impressed with the power of these guns, displayed on the ocean surface. Wikipedia has some interesting info on these guns, look at the capabilities of them. Range = 24 miles ! damn ! and takes about 1.5 mins in the air to reach that distance. 2xdamn!

They are impressive. I'd like to be around a battleship firing. The ones I hung around with were mere pop guns compared with those.

Now imagine moving the Battleship 35 feet sideways. Thats some kick.

As a 20 year Navy man I'll tell you, no one stands close to a firing like this.
