I was the same way Plucket. Then I got my first one and spent days teaching myself how to shoot it without flinching, and getting good spark, etc. Now it seems they are all I want to shoot. Once you get one figured out, they surprise you how fast the ignition is and how well they shoot. But your right.. you need one. Opps, I'm bad. Did I say .. You need one? Funny I should say You need one....
