I was doing some net surfing and found a product review for this thing. http://bugasalt.com/ The part that I shake my head about is the fact that they have sold more than 20,000 of these things. What happened to a good fly swatter?

Lots of Pet Rocks were sold too. I think it is hilarious.

I know it's stupid but for some reason I want one....I mean why get out of your chair and use a manual swatter when you can take out those pesky nasty flies with a cool fire arm...:59:...only thing better would be to take them out in mid air then have their sorry carcass land in the electronic bug zapper to fry....Pow....Pow.......ZZZZZZZZZZZZAP....:cool:

A range of about three feet they say. Strangely when I first saw one, I too thought of the pet rock, and also want one. I don't even have a fly problem, but still.

Just open the doors and windows during the summer and put out a bait station. :D

Jeepster, thanks for the reminder on that thing. Regardless of how old my kids become and how practical their gift list is, Old Santa always tries to get them one "toy' type gift. Bought one just now for my son. I can't afford his usual style of toy these days but this fit the bill perfectly.

Will let everyone know how this works out.

Looking forward to the range report, especially the groupings.

I'm in the process of making a predator call that sounds exactly like dog doo. What a golden opportunity.

Yes, we need a fly assault drone...now maybe this is not as hard as it sounds since "we" already have micro RC helicopters...

Can it be converted to Full Auto?

Not without a Class III license and the tax stamp.

This has potential. Chase the little things down.

Hmmm, wonder if Wolfe sells overpressure springs for these things?

Sorry Old Lincoln, I'm sure they aren't on the California approved list.

Too much salt expended with each shot.

With an on board wi-fi video camera streaming to a computer monitor, you could have a real live dogfight! You'd have to miniaturize the gun, though. :w00t:

I was thinking about making it semi auto or even full auto, wouldn't be able to use one of those little helicopters but one of the ones with four fans would be about right.

I think it looks like it might be fun. Wouldnt pay much for it, maybe $15-$20, but It does look fun to me.
