History:
(Punisher Armory I#7) - Two TM-46 Anti-Tank Land Mines that had probably been used in Angola were sold on the black market and wound up in the Punisher's armory. Although the Punisher wasn't certain what he would do with the land mines, he resolved it was good that they were out of the hands of terrorists.
Comments: Created by Eliot R. Brown.
I chose this item because I have a personal stake in Angola, having relatives there; my cousin witnessed firsthand children who had been crippled by landmines and she became a anti-land mine advocate. Land mines remain a pervasive problem in Angola and Vietnam (another country where TM-46 land mines were used).
