Maximally obnoxious noisy gun.

One of the neatest neatest practical joke/noisemakers that I have ever run across is a three inch by three inch target that you shoot at with a .22 or better gun. When you hit the bull's-eye there is one heck of a kaboom. Whoever pulled the trigger will really be startled. This thing is much louder than a 22, more like a .223 I don't even know if you can get them anymore, but if you can they are great fun.

Fishman is right the down range concusion from a 50 cal is memorable.

Not being a gun guy, I recommed getting a topnotch stereo system with a monster subwoofer, aiming it downrange, and playing the last 5 minutes of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture.

"down" makes me think of downwind, which is where your neighbor should be when locate the stinkiest item possible, and place it upwind of his residence. Also, get a directional speaker and play revelle, taps, etc for him at a very loud volume. If he hates a certain type of music, play it for him.

Bird,

I think you guessed absolutely correctly about the Obnoxious neighbor. When I saw the subject I figured it WAS the neighbor but then I laughed my way through PatrickG's first paragraph! /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

I have not checked but if one does get an FFL license can one own a working howitzer? /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif Maybe I don't want to know the answer to that question..... /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif Might help me solve my noisy neighbor problem! /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Later...

Fishman is on the money. Muzzle blast from the .50 Bmg will open up a hole in the space-time continuum.

A friend shoots some kind of rifle that I think uses black powder, possibly hand loaded?

Another friend about a mile away has one of those lawn cannons that doesn't shoot a projectile. I don't know which is louder but they are louder then typical firearms I sometimes hear.

For worst noise? Get an beat up old rotary, RX2 3 RX7, pull the exhaust system off it, Build a box around it with one open end to help funnel the noise in the direction you want.

If you ever hear one of those on a race track you'll know what I mean.

How about opera sent out over PA speakers, followed by some rap music?
