Did you know? The trivia thread for The Bigger Stick. Get your facts straight!
Did you know that The Bigger Stick is based around two different guns melded together?
The M18 Recoiles Rifle[en.wikipedia.org] and the older Bofors 37mm anti tank gun.[en.wikipedia.org]

While the M18 is capable of being shoulder fired the Bofors is a field artillery pice.

The (very!) old concept art!
