Picture this - you are sitting in a mock howdah which wobbles quite a bit, wearing your pith helmet, carrying your favourite double rifle. Your howdah pistol is in a holster. A tiger target is charging you from close range. Your double having been expended, jammed, whatever (being a "junk" vintage Jeffrey, A&N, WR or H&H ), you need to draw the howdah pistol and shoot the tiger in a leathal area.

I love it. How about a 5 gallon bucket full of water on a big pendulum. While standing in your rickity stand 10 feet above the ground. Your friends are shaking the legs and this bucket is in full charge at your body. Two quick shots with your Double and then, if it is still coming you grab your Howdah and give it two more. Of course if you miss the bucket it knocks you ass over tea kettle off the platform and you consider yourself eaten.
