    I've heard of splitting guns used all along the east coast...from huon pine to mountain ash and that scrub they have in qld. Not sure about W.A. they had different technology to the eastern states, not a lot of logging in S.A. or N.T. so doubtful it was used there.

    Would it be for crushing rock samples and the powder comes out the little hole?

    I have no idea what it is. Either does the owner, he's only guessing (if you read the label).

    Tonic, that looks like some sort of post rammer or similar, except there's no handles.

    I'll give you that one Dave.

    It is a bit more potent though, it is a Jelly Gun. You used Jelly a Sump Det and Safety Fuse. It was used when men were men and OHS was not invented to remove stubborn bolts from Dozer Tracks that were being refurbished if a sledge hammer would not do the job.

    Today they have an air gun like the one to kill catle or an air chisel.

    Have you ever used one Dave? I saw this one at an historical place and had to ask what it was myself. Must have made one hell of a noise.
