The fleshette weapon is being looked at presently. Downed troops means support must be tied up to help wounded personnel. Ammo that detonates around corners we also have.
Out at Sandy Hook NJ there’s a boreless canon that was obsolete before it was finished and the canon that would rise up from Battery Potter (steam lifted it after about 20 minutes) wasn’t efficient at all.

Great replies corrrecting the “impracticality” of these weapons. Could cross the Gustav off the list too- it saw action in ww2 as (surprise surprise)- a siege weapon- took under 10 shots to destroy a magazine which was under 30m of water and 10m of concrete. Oh, and about 15km away.

And aren’t the Israelis using a modern version of the cornershot?

The Davy Crockett wasn’t as stupid as it first looks. While the weapon did have a larger theoretical blast radius than its effective range, it was intended to use favorable terrain. Lob it over a ridgeline and the firing team should (hypothetically) be safe. More importantly, the Crocketts were a great deterrent. 3 men and a jeep could produce a realistic threat to an armored battalion. Thaty being said I don’t know of anyone who volunteered for a Crocket team…
