Default Force carbonating then bottling?

Hi,
I have a kegerator setup, but I'm interested in bottling some of my beers to take to my local pub for the locals to try, and to give to people as presents.
I was wondering if it was possible to force carbonate in a cornelius keg, and then transfer to the bottle>

What would be the best way of doing this? Is there anything I should make sure I don't do? Is it ok to just pour straight from the tap into the bottle? How do I avoid oxidisation? Will the beer stay carbonated?

Thanks,
- Oneleg.

Ahoy matey, check out the thread that is stickied at the top of this forum - We dont need no stinking beer gun. It's an easy, affordable build, and you'll be able to bottle from a pressurized keg doing that.

Exactly. For less than ten bucks, you should be able to put together a BMBF and bottle with that.
