Hi peeps...

Its winter, and i am planning a new spud build, and i want a "double spud gun with two shots, like a side by side shotgun.
The thing is, i want to reload it the same way as u would normally load a shotgun.
But i am not able to think out a reload design that is fast and safe at the same time, anyone of u know of a similar project ? or got any ideas how to solve this dilemma ?
:?

I am going for a golfball shooter, so its gonna be a pretty big cannon...

How big is big? You know, using preloaded cartridges would keep the launcher pretty clean... but for decent power for golfballs they would have to the pretty much the size of Bofors 40mm cannon shells...

Meh... i still have some trouble with the design of the breach design.

Making a combustion, with a quick and hassle free, airtight seal on the barrels is not that easy.

A frontloader design is not a option :-)

PS, she might have a great personality though...

Seriously, I'd take a chick who's still attractive, but a bit less so over a 10/10 who's a complete idiot. Girl I'm seeing now is a solid 6, but isn't a complete bi­tch, unlike an 8 I was fornicating for a while.
