Re: What is a Howdah RIFLE?

An article on the Howdah Rifle that has resided in my gunsafe, can be found here:
TIGER TAMER: A 12-BORE HOWDAH DOUBLE.
It was published in our local Arms Collectors Club Journal way back in June 2008, and famously plagiarized by a "Walter Mitty" with the screen-name Monish over on African Hunting forums!
Still haven't fired that marvelous howdah rifle, but intended to make a handful of solid-web cartridges on the "12-bore from Hell" principle to provide strength at the breech.
Life's too short!
Thanks so much for posting this.
Very interesting.
