Lego Arm Technique

Just before I went to sleep last night I had an idea. I don't think this has done before but let m know if it has. I was trying to think of a good way to put a minifig's arm sideways. Here you see some of my space marines running from... something. One of them chose to fire s few shots off. He looked back and fired with one arm. Now comes my technique. Take a BA monopod and clip it onto a minifig arm. Then take the round end of the monopod and stick it in the arm socket. The arm moves around a bit but you should be able to pose it long enough to take a picture at least.
