Redleg13a Posted August 2, 2015 Share #1 Posted August 2, 2015 Dad and I went out to an antique mall yesterday and then stopped by a surplus store on the way back. They had a Mark 46 mod 1 torpedo out front. It's painted white says Dummy on it. Interesting to see it here in MO and not really sure why they have it. I guess they want to sell it but it's kind of odd to have here in this state. They also have a heavy cruiser 8" brass shell casing inside. Tried to insert a pic but it's too big and I can't link it from photobucket. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usmc3439 Posted August 6, 2015 Share #6 Posted August 6, 2015 So, I was just reading this thread and the boss lady saw the picture of the torpedo and said: "You are not thinking about buying that thing, aren't you? I don't want that thing in the middle of the living room! She knows me too well. That would be indeed a unique piece to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundance Posted August 6, 2015 Share #7 Posted August 6, 2015 I was wondering where I left that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Flick Posted August 7, 2015 Share #8 Posted August 7, 2015 Man, that thing would look great in my pool. Of course, if I bought it my wife would then have the opportunity to observe that there were now two dummies in the pool. This is an action shot of a later Mark 46, a Mod 5A being launched from the USS O'Kane off of Hawaii in 2011.
