guys how do you straighten your spears and gun barrels?
thanks

Yup, works like a charm ;D
Actually, I just bend them back with my hands or use the butt of my knife to carefully hammer it back into shape. Very hightech as you can see ;)
"Carefully" I guess is the obvious answer...although you have to be bold too I think: sometimes you need to actually make the situation worse in order to improve it - ie bend further / in a different direction so that you can then make a further bend to straighten (if that makes sense - usually if you've got a kink rather than a bend).
And fingers definitely - although I've been known to use my knife butt too like Jase :D
So that's two votes for butts then ...
It's a series of bends and counter-bends, hard to explain, but I carefully push in part of a bend, then from the other side and repeat until it is more or less straight.
@Dave: Well, I'm not really a butt-man myself, I'd reather go for the frontend...
Drill 'em out and replace with nice sharp wire, no bendy spears in this man's army >:(
