Fantastic!

If you can find it there is a History channel dvd called artillery wars.
Features many ml canons live firing.

You can get tank mounted guns and artillery pieces on a Sec1 FAC, the breech block needs to be removed and stored securely.Quite a few people that have tanks and artillery pieces etc want them "live-fire" so they can use them with blank shells for re-enactments etc, something which is impossible if they are deactivated.
