Probably borderline toy, but a good one. If not familiar google Bug A Salt and see videos. This gun uses table salt and you get about 80 shots a filling. It kills flies and other bugs up to about 3-4 feet away. It does it without splattering them. I'm having a ball with mine and would like to hear other reports.

bought one for 2 of the grandsons (7 & 9) and they are having a ball with it

Just learned they have a new model, Beta so I have one on order. If I like it better, will give my other to my grandson that has twin sons that are 7, I'm sure the three will enjoy it.

Very cool! Good info -- I have been wondering about them! I will stay tuned for further developments!

Thanks,
John

Got the latest 3.0 beta. It's almost the same as the older 2.0. On the 2.0 the safety came on automatically when you cocked it and had to be placed in "fire" position every shot. The newer version has a slide safety and stays in same position. I like that better. Can't tell any difference in power although the newer one is supposedly stronger. Neither one incapacitates a wasp--they are meant for flies and do a number on them. Gave my old one which was all but new to my grandson. They do not show the newer one on their site but you can call them order it. 310 870 6942.

I have an older version from 1.5yr ago. Works well! I have been using large crushed black pepper or reloading cupcake sprinkles for a buckshot effect. Works great

They work good on Spiders!!!
