    Do you actually use a saw then?

    I always imagined scissors were easier

    It has been known...rags the edges more, light touch of copydex if they fray too far ( you have to know these things )

    generally scissors are easier

    Actually, I find sawn-off shotguns to be a stronger retro statement. That's why I always carry one.
