Re: Street Awareness...
True that would stop the problem for sure but a person like that should have some time for regret so I suggest being tossed in a spot teeming with gators .They would have time to contemplate their evil ways (though briefly)and also provide food for nature’s creatures,a win win for everyone

Wheellocks are fascinating and very intricate to build .They are like a well built timepiece and are a joy to shoot.One thing about matchlocks is unlike flintlocks and percussion guns you can easily make your own matchcord.
