just ordered train horns!

Just ordered a set of 3 trumpet train horns today from Freightliner. Very good deal too. Now looking for a pair of air tanks off of a semi for good volume!! Needs a compressor and a ball valve. also going to wire an electric/air solenoid to the alarm so it wakes up the ENTIRE neighborhood if some little POS tries to steal it again.

if the horns dont give them a heart attack, then the bullets fixing to rip them to shreads will probably take care of them

just called a local truck salvage yard and they have air tanks from a semi for $50 each!! Going to buy 2. That should supply plenty of air.

I would like to do this. If you post photos and a parts list I would appreciate it very much. I want to do my Unimog too but it already has air.

I think I would finesse pain upon the losers with one of these though. Pest eliminator extraordinaire! Just open a window no one but the **** target will know.

Dont shoot someone with an air gun you are asking for trouble. If i where to get shot with an air gun i will feel it is a threat on my life and the other person would have .45 holes in then in no time. This is sad to say but it is better to stop you asalent with death than to stun them.

LOL, you shoot someone for trying to steal a vehicle and you will be doing the horizontal bop with Bubba in the big house.

No bubbu bob here. I would lose everything I have but it is actually legal to protect your property in New Mexico ONLY if it involves a FELONY. I know a couple guys that have been in that situation and lost everything they had with a lawyer but they got off.

I am going to mount them in the spare tire location since I don't have a spare anymore since running the 37's

Why are the train horns on trainhorns.org so cheap? Are they quality horns?
