Who made that rocket?

REDJACKET??? </div></div>

No, that mortar went straight out of the tube. RedJacket rockets go everywhere but straight.

Most commonly a mechanical timer initiated by the concussion of the charge.
 
Re: Run!!!!!!

I hear they make a little blue pill for that problem. Also, if you are in a teachers union, the blue pill is paid for by the government (meaning taxpayers).

Mt late wife was in the teacher's union, they paid for my little blue pill, but not for what you're thinking about, I had low blood pressure for a couple years
 
Re: Run!!!!!!

Just a little more serious than having a blooper in a shotgun and having the shot almost roll out of the barrel. Been there , done that , the blooper not the morter.

Re: Run!!!!!!

Mortar projos usully need decent acceleration before they arm, but I would have run, too.

Whoever was stripping the excess charges (in bags) off the round took them all, rather than leave 1 or 2 on. The primer/detonator is the only thing that blew. Whoops!
