VIDEO: Firing a Fully Functional 105mm Howitzer from WWII

It goes without saying, but getting to fire the 105mm Howitzer is a truly unique experience.

Athlon Outdoors contributor Will Dabbs recently got his hands on one. Will was writing a piece on DriveTanks.com for the fall 2017 issue of Ballistic Magazine and wouldn’t you know it? They have a fully functional U.S. M2A1 Light Howitzer.

“The workhorse of towed American field artillery during Word War II, the M2A1 fired a 105mm shell either indirectly or directly. It was so effective that it also saw use in Korea and Vietnam.”
