I have never had problem with them. Yes they are more expensive then a flare gun kit. But when it comes to survival I prefer to have the best. snip Might want to see if you can find one of the old USN metal 12ga ones. Look like a single barreled shotgun pistol. We have one, works like a champ. Haven't had the gumption to tie it to a plank with a string on the trigger, and fire off a low base 12ga birdshot round yet, but I am thinking about it ![]() -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/jOo6d90bcYOAWPYRAsjbAKDDuA4wPdXY91OphHB5GEVAlu78tQ Cgv8IY EEF4Z5YJs8z3vJR1ZzYMyKg= =/Hgf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Jim Richardson http://www.eskimo.com/~warlock If something is so complicated that you can't explain it in 10 seconds, then it's probably not worth knowing anyway. -- Calvin |
