Oh gee, I dunno. Maybe it's the fact that IT'S A HOWITZER. Do you not see the problem with this? Let me make it simple: A civilian is running around with a long-range artillery piece that can destroy a building with no problem. NOW do you understand? What would happen if that thing misfired at a public demonstration? Hmm? What if the shell trajectory was off and caused the shell to land in a town or in a camping area?

Too many risks, and there's no need in it.

Yeah, all good and fair, but like I said, there's too much that could go wrong, and does go wrong. If you keep these things within the public, then accidents are going to happen; very costly accidents. You don't need an RPG or a howitzer, and if you want to see one, go to a museum.

These things are dangerous, but I can tell you I'd rather have a gun incident than an explosives incident.
