    Pretty much means there has to be a dump box at every shooting station, though.
    Kind of puts a damper on the proper Hong Kong Reload:

    1) Shoot Berettas akimbo at target until empty
    2) Gently toss empty Berettas to the side
    3) Spin dramatically so trenchcoat flares open while drawing more Berettas
    4) Repeat

    Hmm Thunderstruck was released in 1990.

    Do we have to pick a song per a stage?
    I would wager that repeating the same song on 4 stages would be a gamble, depending on the mood of the crowd. Would you want to risk a procedural per thumbs-down from the peanut gallery simply because you couldn't come up with more than one song to play?

    How about a pre-1950 military handgun comp?

    Rock a TT33 or P38.

    But the 90s sucked for rock music. Well I guess I have to suck it up and pick music I don't like but were popular. Gamers gotta game.

    Anyone know who handles Jan Hammer's booking?

    Back in Black was the early '80s. I distinctly recall such. All the cool kids had that album.

    The people shooting the 80s division have the easiest time picking songs. There was so much good music in the 80s.

    90's subdivision: School of John Woo.
    Dual-wielding mandatory, no limit on magazine capacity. Best 4 shots per target count, points divided by 2 for score.
    Permitted reloads: safely ditch both guns (must be both) and draw another identical pair, OR crouch 100% shielded by hard cover and reload while keeping up a stream of taunts and insults directed downrange at the "opposition".
