And that's how they get so mushy.

OMG! An assault pea shooter! Ban it quick before it puts someone's eye out.

Finally, forums working again..?

I love that other competitors had super high-tech, moded-out pea shooters, but they got pwnd by a novice with an old school model.

Delicious.

We aren't allowed guns in Britain, so this is what we have to use to fend off burglars and rapists.

Not only is that the funniest picture I've seen in a long time, it may also
be the filthiest SFW pic ever in the history of Fark, if only for skirting
Rule 34 territory in a variety of ways.....

Meh, that's not laser guided, he just took the top off of an old SNES Super Scope. Man that was a fun gun...

The "peas" are actually dried maple seeds because their smooth, regular shape helps them fly.


They fly real good...like helicopters.

WTF?

There's a laser pointer next to the SuperScope eyepiece.

Because that's the only kind of handgun they are allowed to own in the UK these days.

Not *TECHNICALLY* true. You can't own a modern handgun, but you can own muzzleloaders and cap and ball revolvers.

I had always thought so too.

Because sometimes people just try WAY too hard at things

/would use a laser sighted pea shooter
//would probably add some sort of gyroscopic stabilization

But was it a Sombrero-ed guy who was also using the Internet?

laser-guided or laser-sited?

Actually, I believe I could...

Legal in the UK, and every bit as lethal as a modern revolver. Not only that, but you can reload them *ALMOST* as fast: You just drop the loading lever down, pull the cylinder pin out partway, take out the fired cylinder, and pop in a pre-loaded cylinder. Easy-peasy. Depending on how well you lube it, you can get at least 3 cylinders through before it starts to gum up from fouling. That's 18 shots.
