He has them hanging so they can release (some amount of) energy from the impact. He's also aiming at the center of them, instead of where the impact might be more likely to cause the shackle to disengage from the mechanism. Certainly better targeting would have let the .223 do the job. ---------------------------------------------------------------- GAMERS Home Page: http://www.phoenyx.net/gamers/

Yep, he says he was specifically attempting to simulate the way locks get shot off in the movies, and that shooting down into the casing somehow (however he puts it on the page) would be more effective with pretty much anything. But that wouldn't have let him take amusing shots of finding pieces of the lock out in the yard there, so where's the fun in that? -- Karen J.
