Bug A Salt

[Slicktop]

Quickly becoming my favorite go to.
Hard to cock but effective.
Year round season.
Satisfaction.

 

[Shark Bait]

A lot of satisfaction blasting pesky insects. I gave one to my dad and brother this year.

 

[Slicktop]

I've known about it since the debut, but didn't want to spend the cash.
Santa delivered.
Can't wait for Spring.

 

[Slicktop]

Might work on a puppies *** too.

I’m waiting on a more compact version for concealed carry.

I have tried a few belonging to friends. I often said that they need to come out with a magnum model that shoots bigger sea salt.My friend glued the safety on his. As I recall, the safety resets each time it is cocked(???). He glued his down so he could just pump it and fire. I am sure this would void the warranty and could be an ATF violation!

 

[Shark Bait]

My safety doesn't reset each time I cock it. Sounds like he got the California approved model.

Such a warm winter.
Got three since 1100hrs

You MUST get the laser attachment! I like to set up a blind by a fresh present left by dog.

I hear you. Maybe a cell camera too.

Seems like S&W could get in the game with .45acp rocksalt 180g.
Smooth bore. Buffalo Bore ammo. Hard cast.

I got each of our four kids a Bug-A-Salt for Christmas a few years ago. Now, at that time, all of our kids were either in their late 30's or early 40's, and it was a big hit. They were so excited, they were like little kids. Our 43-year-old son and our 40-year old son set up tinfoil targets outside and practiced, seeing how their new toys patterned.

We still get reports each spring and summer as our kids keep their Bug-A-Salts handy in preparation for any unlucky fly that happens to invade their homes.

You need to get the 'Black Fly' version. It's an upgrade to the original models. Slimmer, easier to cock, no pesky auto safety engagement after cocking, better trigger, more power than the original models.

Good improvements.
Another would be gas canisters.

Or a bayonet!

 

[Slicktop]

I've also thought of a forward stop so it could be racked on a counter edge.

 

[Golddollar]

You must have some HUGE flies!

Not so much the flys, it's those dang stink bugs!

 

[Slicktop]

Will be on full wasp patrol come spring.
3' at 5-20 wasp's on nest will test the platform.

Make sure you have your running shoes on

I got one this year for Christmas, and am excited to find a target, but no joy so far.
Winter is not exactly a time when there is a target rich environment.
I dont think I would have guts enough to hunt wasps with it, but let us know how you come out with that hinting trip..
I did load some walnut media in a 38 special, to shoot carpenter bees with. It worked well!

We use the Bugzooka for those! No fuss, no muss, no stink.

 

[Ruger 13]

I load mine with Kosher salt!

[CA Escapee]

Good improvements.
Another would be gas canisters.

Or a hopper for 5 lbs of salt.

 

[JohnK]

I use mine for mean Red wasps.

It does NOT anger them, shooting them with the Bug-a-salt.

 

[Ole Joe Clark]

Be careful, I have a young friend that lives in Florida. I don't know the details, but he stirred up a hornets nest and was stung 70 times and lived to tell about it.

Have a blessed day,

Leon

A woman walked into the kitchen to find her husband stalking around with a Bug A Salt.

"What are you doing?" she asked.

"Hunting Flies," he responded.

"Oh!, Killed any?" she asked.

"Yep, 3 males, 2 Females," he replied.

Intrigued, she asked. "How can you tell?"

He responded, "3 were on a beer can, 2 were on the phone."

(Couldn't resist.)
