    Full gallop, lever gun...be great fun...almost as accurate as an AR15 on a bench rest.

    I don't know about a full gallop but a brisk canter absolutely. Reins in your teeth Spook?
    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

    Got no bloody teeth...you cant be a cheeky cunt all your life and keep your teeth as well.
    I see by those photos that the bigger the belly the longer the arms have to be to reach the pistol.
