cool...mind making a diagram on how to configure the ammunition. im still a bit confused based on the description. he was also talking about lining the inside with a plastic bag or something....i got an idea on how to make em but don't wanna risk it igniting in the barrel.

I'm pretty sure that a while back that group had to disband because one of the members died...or something. I can't remember too well, but I'm fairly certain there was an article about a death in this group.
