Caution, before taking this gun into battle, you might want to be aware that it jams pretty easily and can be a real handful to reload. :)

Oh, and I broke a ball point pen firing it at my office door, which is solid wood. I think it probably would have penetrated a hollow door.

Well I did have to put on my ninja outfit and sneak past the receptionist and into the supply closet. It was worth the effort. Sadly that's the most effort I'll put into anything at work all week.

It's not BYO, but it's Stingray's level of go-gettum-ness.

USB powered darts ;D

I can't remember where I found the link for that at.  Mebbe Red Ferret?  Google USB darts, though, and I betcha you can find 'em.  They aren't much, they're only like $15-20!

Post by: DrewKaree on December 05, 2005, 09:51:00 am
Oh, and they say you launch 'em with a mouse click!

Now you'll have to get an assistant so they can go pick them up for you ;D

Google gives me the same bad link that you posted on Marks & Spencer. Maybe that page is just temporarily down. Those are super cool! I think I need them.

If you truely want to wage office war http://www.backyardartilery.com/ is the best place to stock up on weapons.  They even have plans or kits you can buy to build your own catapult, trebuchet, etc.
