Billybob and I tried that one night down by the crik and when he saw the missus down dare with his cousin polishin the 'ol trailer hitch he put so many shots that way the duct tape let loose before his magazine was empty. I reccomend a tad bit of JB weld to that NASCAR style aerodynamic McGuiver mount - use a good amount of it tho... a large pinch, like where you got so much long cut chew it gets all stuk between the gaps in ur teeth. Now git er done son!!!

duct tape wouldn't work but drywall screws definitely would work just make sure that you torque them down tight
