Kid Rock is adamant he gets a bigger buzz from firing a gun than he does from performing on stage.

The rocker is a sworn sergeant in New Orleans, which enables him to carry a firearm wherever he goes in the U.S.

And the star admits the biggest thrill he has ever had was using a gun from his vintage collection of deadly weapons.

He says, “I can carry a gun anywhere in the US. I don't though - only when I'm going somewhere like Detroit.

“The biggest rush I've had is firing a 1858 civil war cannon I bought for $200,000. It’s called a Boston Patriot. Anything from the civil war is pricey because of the history connected to it.”
