Have had one for a couple years now, think it was $40 at Caroline supplies. Wife hates it because it shoots salt all over the floor haha. Instant death to the winged critters. Tried it on a pine beetle, just made it mad.

They were terrible in the raspberries and every 4th or 5th berry had bites out of it.
Didn't want to spray around there and a salt gun would be just plain fun anyways.

Nice. Should have gotten two. The second one for pepper. Would be useful at the BBQ too.

Wonder if they make a model that shoots peppercorns... as 'bugshot' for big game like grasshoppers ? Wingshooting grasshoppers on the rise....the elite sport of nobles.
