TRY? You post enough pics of cool guns that if you can't manage to post at least one pic of a hot chick with a levergun or a six shooter, I will start a petition to have you banned. From Earth!

Sweet. Need an assistant?

[PanaDP]

Sounds like fun. Teach her better than the average film armorer would. I'm a camera assistant and generally just shake my head and look away at the average gun-handling I see on set.

remember to tell her to put her face as close to the sights as possible (eyeball should be almost touching rear sight)

this is especially effective when shooting high-powered .45-70 buffalo rounds since these heavy rounds move so slow the recoil is equally minimal.
