It's so fun. The best part is, you have to aim it (oddly the sights as crude as they are, are pretty much dead on), and be pretty decent with it, to get frequent kills. It takes a degree of practice and skill to use it effectively. I bought the "Lawn and Garden" version to compare, and it sucked. The standard 2.0 is where it's at.
I have a lot of guns, and shoot whenever I can, but this thing helps ease the cabin fever I get when it's too hot to shoot real guns for many months at a time.
Yes, the ammo (table salt), is WAY cheaper than 9mm, 45ACP, 5.56, 7.62x39, 12 gauge, etc.And it's a lot cheaper to shoot than a real gun
Excellent idea.Best mod I've done is to pull the safety back & run a small screw thru it to permanently disable it!
Yeah, that's what they call it. Some review did seem to show it being more effective than regular table salt. I guess the grains are supposed to be more uniform and of the ideal size. Could be marketing BS too.

I've taken many flies from 5-6 feet, some at even further distances. It is better to be a little closer, but you don't have to be right up on them at all. The spread gets pretty wide if too far, and that will disable, but not always kill a fly. The 3.0 appears to have a much tighter pattern and more power, so longer kills should be easier.What is your furthest kill? Do you have to be within swatting distance?
I don't know man, I've killed numerous flies past two feet. I mean 2-3 feet is probably the sweet spot, at least with the 2.0 I have, but I've gone quite a bit further too. Not unlike a real gun, aim is very important. I've shot this thing so many times I'm pretty accurate with it, but I wasn't when I first got it. I'd think I had a good shoot, and the fly would just fly off, and I'd think WTF is wrong with this thing. I rarely miss now.A piece of table salt has almost no mass and is generally squarish so it loses velocity and energy really, really, quickly. Out beyond maybe 24 inches you just as well wish the fly dead.
