    Ernie, if you can get Double D to come north for a visit with his Krupp and get another party to man your second Krupp, you could re-create the spectacular 3-way duel scene in my favorite movie, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly where Tuco, Angel Eyes and Blondie face off with loaded sidearms, darting eyes and twitching trigger fingers.   :) :)

Smokin' my pipe on the mountings, sniffin' the mornin'-cool,
I walks in my old brown gaiters along o' my old brown mule,
With seventy gunners be'ind me, an' never a beggar forgets
It's only the pick of the Army that handles the dear little pets - 'Tss! 'Tss!

shoot marshmellos

I'm thinking the situation could get a bit sticky  :o

Anxious to get the kraola's out   ::)

A few years back when the grandsons were 8 and 9 years old , I made marshmellow guns for Christmas gifts . You shoot the small mellows with a good puff of air from the lungs.
The younger grandson figured out a rapid fire system .
    It left no doubt of a direct hit .
He would load his mouth , get them all nice and sticky and fire away !
   Grandma had to pick a few off the picture windows :>)
The girls were no match as their long hair made for easy targets .

My daughter saw the humor of it but the girls didn't as it was a sticky mess they couldn't deal with . 
So out side they went , came back with mellows stuck all over their new Christmas clothes . The the daughters failed to see the  humor  in that !

Another year I bought the kids "Texas Magnum" rubber band guns . For 3 days the house turned in to a battle field of boys against girls .
 Wife found rubber bands for years after , in the flower pots , behind piano, in plants , hung on back side of drapes , in book shelves , Clothes closets .

The "Texas Magnum" us a revolver type rubber band gun . One can load 10 rubber bands at a time . A rapid fire  is really cool to see . The younger grandson perfected a near fully automatic firing operation .  It really smarts to get wacked with a full unload !

Rubber band guns brings back memories...
I worked in a place years ago and the accounting girls had great fun shooting rubber bands at "interlopers" into their territory. Found a rubber band gun similar to a gatling that held a hundred rubber bands, the newspaper size. I loaded it, put into a lunchbag and sauntered thru "their" territory. Sure enuf I got shot at and I sprayed 'em all, shooters and non-shooters alike :)
Probably go to jail for that now...
