I don't own a gun, and I don't want to.
I have an uncle that used to make fertilizer bombs, and blow up appliances and old cars. He said that they would dig a hole, put a 10 gallon bomb in the bottom, and a water-heater on top. He joked that there is nothing like seeing a water-heater go 1/4 mile into the air. After the Oklahoma City bombing, the FBI visited his pal that would buy the fertilizer. They had to stop after that. In his words: "Recreational bombing isn't what it used to be."
