| Yup, spell checker found 'bold' and it is indeed a word. The word should have been 'bolt'. As for firing objects, I suppose it could be done except my barrel is non-hollow. I'd have to devise a different system. Randy -- Randy Anchikoski (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.build)

The long barrel is only an advantage when you use compressed air (in a pneumatic gun) or other compressed gases (in a regular gun). I really (...)
