Quite a kick!

When I first saw Mae of the C&Rsenal YouTube channel fire this wall gun, I could have sworn that it had dislocated her shoulder, but obviously not.

Have you seen their "It's A Trap!" series? It's informal, unscripted, showing off old hand traps - clay pigeon throwers. And it is surprisingly amusing and relaxing.

No, I haven't seen that, but thanks for the tip!

It helped her that the gun was sitting on the sawhorse, but not a lot.

Wowsers!

So named because it could knock down a wall?

Gregory: It probably could knock down a wall, but it's called a wall gun because it was typically mounted on the wall of a fort.

A real shoulder bruiser.

Doing some research on the wall gun, they apparently were generally mounted on something very solid, to avoid the recoil dangers, although there are a few illustrations showing wall guns on a simple bipod support.
