Default Samson ?

Just wondering if anyone has or have heard the big guns 2 short slashers? Are they loud? How loud are they compared to the original big guns? I narrowed it down to short slashers, just dont know which ones to get. Ive heard that the originals are louder than the 2s. I dont want the big guns 3 series. You cant take the baffles out of them. I called samson and they are bringing back the original big guns for 2008. Its a hard choice to make. If anyone has heard the big guns 2 slashers, Let me know what you think of them. Ive heardthe original big guns in person and they sound awesome, the only flaw i dont like is they dont come with full heat shields. Only partial heat shields. Which ones would you guys go with?

I had the BG2 long slashers on my last bike. The BG 2's did not have baffles in them and the pipes never blued or anything like that. All in all they were awesome, loud as hell but deep and throaty and they look gangster.
