    Weld the lugs in behind the gong.

    Worst that will happen then is the chain could get hit and bust.

    Only problem Pete is the angle starts to get a little steep on the far targets. I don't mind fixing them from time to time, doesn't take me long and keeps me out of trouble.

    Doesn't happen thaaaat often, provided @AndrewH isn't having a bad day

    That is a bloody good idea Pete. I will discuss that possibility today.
    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
