Hmm..I have a little interest in this as well. I keep saying I'm going to buy a bike, but I can't seem to find one with a hand cannon mount for my treks through the hood. That, and I know little about bikes. I know I don't want to spend $500 on something I won't use that often, but since I'm slinging 225 lbs on it, I don't want it to fall apart either.
