and use it as a handheld
Just so you'd know, anything above 3,000 ft-lbs gets fairly uncontrollable if you use a heavy projectile. I finally got the handgrips on my big 2500+ ft-lb combustion and found that it really likes to jump out of my hands with anything of a decent weight.


But I can't wait to see it :)

Well I don't think I'd fire it as a handheld at full power...

Right now I'm just taking a bit of a break from spudding, as my various trains of thought had got kind of derailed. I'll probably start working on it again after the weekend, hopefully with some interesting and viable ideas.
