If you adjust for... Although I bet it was expensive because a lot of punt guns back then were loaded through the barrels.

right?

Like you, you drop down a scoop full of gunpowder and then like a, probably a cardboard wad, uh, and then a handful of, of pellets.

Um, ours is breach loading.

So it's loaded more like a traditional shotgun.

I bet those things were expensive to make back then as well.

Yeah, that's good.

We'll never know.

Yeah.

$20,000 punt gun.

Uh, and then, you know, it only takes 20 shells to equal the price of that.

Um, now with, with our auction, when we auction this thing off in August, you are getting one of the spent shells.

You actually, you're getting two, you're getting the OG one, uh, that we based our modern ones off of.

And then you're getting one of those modern spent shells.

That way, if you want to shoot this thing, you can go have your thousand dollar shells made as well.

All right.

86 Spencer says, did you figure out approximately how big the spread would be or it's lethal distance?

Our first shot was to determine exactly that.

I think we wound up, it was like an eight foot by eight foot spread at 30 yards.

If you were going to shoot a 12 gauge at 30 yards, max would like a 30 inch spread.
