It is possible, but not as simple as going out and buying one. For one, you'd have to live in a state which approved private possession of destructive devices, then you'd have to go through the NFA permitting process, then, on top of that, you'd have to find one which was for sale and available. After that, you'd be subject to pay an additional $200 transfer tax (on top of the price of the munitions) for the munitions you'd fire from it.

What is the best caliber for howitzer?

105mm During the 1930's, the US Army developed a new 105mm Howitzer for their field artillery battalions that was based upon the French gun of same caliber. The Germans also had a 105mm howitzer. To this day, the caliber is still used by many nations. It will probably remain the military standard for at least another decade, but improved transportation and lighter frames make the 155 the bore of the future. Like the French 75 gave way to the 105, the inevitable bigger bang will win out. The 60mm mortar gave way to the 81mm, and the 120mm is the standard of today and tomorrow. Advanced MOrtar Systems (AMOS) using twin breech loading tubes, automatic loading and advanced fire control can place four rounds on a target at the same instant and be a half mile down the road before the rounds impact. This is a loaded question, and the is "what are you going to do with the piece?" If you're going to build a self-propelled howitzer in any NATO nation, it will have a 155mm tube. There are also towed 155mm systems that are used as general support fire in light divisions. They're introducing precision-guided artillery rounds, and those are all 155mm rounds. It's a very versatile caliber. That versatility stops when you need to drop the piece by parachute, run an artillery raid out of a Chinook, or fire it out of a C-130. For these applications, the 105mm is better--the weapon is smaller and lighter and sometimes that's important. So...the best caliber for a howitzer is 155mm.

At the beginning of WW 1 the British had both a powerful field gun and a good howitzer for high angle fire especially useful in siege warfare. The French field gun, the 7.5 millimeter, had elements of superiority over the British gun, including only two thirds of its weight. At the war's beginning, the French had not received any of its 105 millimeter howitzers. For Germany, its field gun lacked the range and and power of the Allied guns.
