If any of the little ones turn out well, I'm hoping to do a minifig (...) (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.western, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.boats)

Hey, I'm glad that you were able to see my site, There's an error in the code so some folks haven't been able to see it. The Trick to my shotgun mod is in "shaving" down the inside portion of each barrell. This creates a flat surface on the inside (...) (24 years ago, 7-Feb-01, to lugnet.western)
