OMG Winter Hawk, you're skating on thin ice by mentioning the "unmentionables".  :Doh! Better hope the guards are taking a smoke break.  :stooges: It sure did sound like quite a necessary challenge, though. How did you go?

Charging Bear? I'll stick with the Marching Mexican soldiers, thank you!
I'm  not  H/C or P/C or even a particularly  good shot but I have a hell of a good time!

I made my three shots with the shotgun and passed okay.  Didn't take any practice shots beforehand, either.  I hated shooting it, always got a headache and sore cheek from the recoil.  I guess I'm just a wimp at heart and stick to shooting the holy black, poured down from the muzzle!  :o
