    Firing on all cylinders there Dundee.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    They will work,but I would take the gut hook out and cut the trebble hook an make it a single.When ya cut hooks off a treble leave the one facing up then you will get less snags.

    Now you see Dundee, that is when you need a mate like me around. You know someone that doesn't give a shit if he hurts you. If I'd been there I would have grabbed a pair of pliers and just yanked it out for you!
