This Video Kicks Some SERIOUS Butt- Watch As Scott Fires “Fury” The Punt Gun

All right folks have I got a genuine, ‘honest-to-goodness’ treat instore for you! In the video below, Scott has pulled-out all the stops and has brought back the Punt Gun by the name of “Fury”.

Now, a couple of months back, Scott introduced us all to “Fury” and the response from all of you, was OVER 4 million views on YouTube (not bad for a gun loving redneck huh?).

So in the video below, Scott is going to use “Fury” against some of his favorite targets, Ballistic “Zombie” Torsos.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with a “Punt Gun” is, let me enlighten you, below is an excerpt from an article in the “Boone and Crockett Club”:

As the poster-child of waterfowl market hunting of the 1800s, the punt gun was a 10-foot long, 100-pound muzzleloading shotgun that might be better categorized as artillery. This gun was typically mounted to the bow of a small boat (or punt), aimed at a mass of migratory waterfowl and then, with the single pull of a trigger, it could annihilate 50-100 birds.

Used in the 1800s and early 1900s, these guns were an efficient and economical way to feed the needs of a nation. Because of that demand—and the market hunters hellbent on meeting it—waterfowl numbers in the U.S. plummeted at the turn of the 20th century.

Many states had outlawed the use of punt guns by the 1860s, but it wasn’t working. Legislatively, there was a divided front as some states still allowed their use. Because migratory waterfowl are, well, migratory, it was tough to protect them across their entire flyway from market hunters.

At the turn of the 20th century, federal law was desperately needed not just for waterfowl, but for all of the nation’s wildlife, including egrets that were sought for their feathers to adorn ladies’ hats of the day.
