Looks like we found out the Brenham dvm's Texags handle!!!!

Hmm, all of my friends with retrieving dogs will be having some fun....

I have the golf ball one and it is a lot of fun.

There's a video of the X-Products guys goofing around with it and one of them is wearing an Aggie hat and their truck has a Century Club sticker on it. I'll have to see if I can find it. Might have to buy one now that I'm reminded of it.
Edit: Found it

Finally I have a reason to buy an AR15.

I have one at the shop as a novelty. Not sure if I'll ever sell it but it's pretty cool

Oh Lord, this board has me about $6k in the hole on gun stuff this year alone...please stop posting stuff like this...I need to add more to the kids' college funds some day.

That reminds me of my grapnel hook AR attachment.... Loads of fun!

For some reason, I read the title as "Cat Cannon" and was a little disappointed when I opened the link.

Well, there's still the old standby, the CATapult.

Hey, so anybody have this and is it any fun? Thinking of birthday gift ideas for myself to tell my wife.

And no rule #1 she's from CS and her dad worked at A&M and her extended family is very involved in BCS so it would get back to me, and I wouldn't even get my baseline birthday present.

I have one. It's fun. Gotta get blank ammo. I shoot apples and potatoes out of it. Cans too, but then you gotta pick them up. And that's some pricey ammo. You can have someone with a shotgun next to you and launch a potato or an apple like skeet. "Pull!"

I am way up on a hill above a river/reservoir with an area below I call "the beach". You shake up the soda can and if you get the angle just right, the can will explode on impact on the beach. I haven't done it yet, but I want to get someone down there with a baseball glove and launch a beer down to him. But the lawyer in me says that may not be a good idea.

I'll see if I can find some pics/video.

Edit: I also bought the golf ball launcher, but haven't used it. Another fun toy I have is a 37 mm grenade launcher. Got the idea from demolition ranch as well. You can make your own ammo (I'm probably on a gov't watchlist) but the store bought fireworks are much better.

Edit 2: One more thing, get a clear magazine for your blank ammo - so you can visually confirm the ammo you/whoever is shooting is only blanks and not live ammo. If you shoot live ammo, the bullet will hit metal inside the "barrel" and that would be no bueno. I think they have the metal in there so it is not an SBR without the outer housing.

No good videos of the can/potato launcher but here's a pic of it mounted. There is also a pic of the grenade launcher and some ammo(fireworks- you can't shoot projectiles until there is the zombie apocalypse).
