I am sure you will like the Shotgun. I have never heard a bad thing about them. I like the look of the seat, nice contrast. Those apes look huge. It may just be the camera angle, but they appear to be up in the air.

Apes are a tad much for my tastes, but I really like everything else you did. The white is a great contrast.
