Very rare "Live Firing" Hispano-Suiza/Oldsmobile 20mm Cannon!

This Hispano Suiza cannon was in a P 38 Lightning during World War II.  After the war it was part of the great tragedy of chopping up all airplanes.  At the time there was a young collector who went out and gathered up a whole bunch of the 20 mm machine guns.  Since he didn't want to pay the $200 tax for each gun, he demilitarized them with a stick welder. Sometime later, this collector: J. Curtis Earl, ran afoul of the BATF.  When the 68 amnesty came around, he registered the guns.

Price Reduced by $10,000 US$ on 10/15/2010!

This cannon is now priced at $24,950 US$ to sell immediately

Maybe if we promise to stop by Nigeria and find that guys kidnapped girlfriend he will front us the $25k.

I have a $5 lotto ticket on my desk I still need to check....

That is actually a very low price. MP5s are selling for around $17k these days.

So, whose girlfriend can we claim has been kidnapped?

More importantly, who do we know (of, about, once heard their name mentioned) that has the kind of loot needed so we can ask them for help ransoming her?

No, I'm not filling out an application for a grant from Bill&MelindaGatesFoundation, although I'm pretty sure we could twist this into a new program to prevent Somali pirates from contracting malaria.

stay safe.

Isn't each separate round considered a destructive device?

[Bogie]

Only if the rounds are the explosive type... I'm not sure if these are the same sorta thing that we've been making the Vulcan 20mm bottle openers from - the bullets we load for those are the blue-painted ones, and we remove the paint and then blue them after we CNC them.

Just give me a P-38L to go with it!  Or one more and a Supermarine Spitfire Mk XVI.  Or three more and a DeHavilland Mosquito Mk VI.
