Re: How many guns can I buy.. ;-) question for electricians ;-)

At the water utility I work for, that would be about a four dollar overage @ .85 cents per 100 CF, and you get 5 CF in your minimum charge..... I use between 1 and 2 CF per month, and I take long hot showers every day.

Re: Totally OT... Honda Goldwing... Towtruck?

Pretty tricky...... My Goldwing has 125 HP and about the same torque. It's very fast and can pull the front wheel off the ground from a stop (so I've seen on YouTube...clutchs are too expensive to be doing that) Perhaps, those special models have much lower gearing for that configuration???

I have .44 Mags, but I suspect that a Special would do most people, unless you shoot good enough to take advantage of it's 100+ yard range. A 240 grain @ 900fps will hammer about anything you need to hammer at under fifty - 75 yards or more.

For a good read, peruse Garrett's web site. His 45-70 and .44Mag loads have re-written the book on penetration and performance with sort-of-lightweight big bore rifles. When he talks of his .44Mag loads going lengthwise thru a bear, and he can back it up, you just have to snap to attention and listen.
