21 стрелять из пушки по воробьям
ирон.cf. break a butterfly on the wheel; crush a fly with a steam-roller; use a steamhammer to crack a nutАня видела, как с помощью мостового крана устанавливали на шестиметровом столе "Нарвских ворот" половину диафрагмы... Это отнимало массу времени, а гигантский уникальный станок использовался крайне непроизводительно. - Из пушки по воробьям! - ворчали строгальщики. (В. Кетлинская, Дни нашей жизни) — Anya would see one half of a diaphragm placed by a gantry on the six-metre table of the Narva Gate... All this took a great deal of time, and the gigantic machine was being used most uneconomically. 'Like using a steamhammer to crack a nut,' the men would grumble.
