Oh ya, Oh ya!	This will keep everybody happy.   Shotgun and 
Trashcan lovers unite, now all we need to do is make it work.

     Shotgun mode at short range allows the 'K' to 'scrub' the 
armor off the target and have a low 'to hit' number.
     Trashcan mode at long range allows AP effects against 
armor (1 point to armor and rest internal) and a higher 'to hit'
number.

As far as 'K' vs 'K' simply subtract the armor level from the
damage done per hit and apply the remainder per the above.

Bye for now,
