I've thought of that before. Lol everyone i mention it to is like "No way, you wont be able to do that, do you know how hard that would be?" But i mean if you really think about it theres not much to them. Only thing i cant wrap my mind around is what would be the best thing to make the frame from. Other than that it's just measurin, cuttin, and weldin.

Ha. There's nothing to it.
Use 11ga 2x4 for the bottom of the frame, mount the shackles off of that. Use 11ga 1x1 for the top half of the frame and plate it in 11ga sheet metal. Done.

I have a copy of the original technical manual that gives dimensions and specs. If you want I can send a copy so you can use that as a guideline.

So when you say go shoot something, don't be surprised if you see me on the 6 o'clock news followed by a report that I shot something, facing south towards the border.

haha. Believe it or not, El Paso is having a serious problem with Over the Border shootings. For much of the border between us and them it's nothing but dirt and bushes. However here, between El Paso and Juarez it looks like a city cut in half. One side is prosperous, the other is like a shanty town.
