Anyone see this before?
Gas cannon that fires 1/8" steel ball bearings using inert gasses.
Pretty wicked.

For having the same muzzle velocity as my pellet gun, it sure did a number on that truck.

At an inch and a quarter ball bearings it has quite abit more energy.

Considering the cost and regulations against FA's I've often wondered why someone doesn't come up with a FA air gun, even shooting .177 BB's or .25 inch ball bearings it would be cheap and alot of gun. I've played around with paintball guns in trying to convert them to .177, it might be a good time to restart that project... :)

Dang, I must need glasses. I read it as 1/8" balls. I wondered how it made such a large hole.

Yet another thing on my "must have" list if I ever won the lottery.

I've seen the Drodz, a local gunshop has a yellow one, can they be made to run off a CO2 bottle like a paint ball gun and don't they only offer a burst not continuous FA?

Is the yellow (older I take it) a good one to get and whats a good price? Since you've reminded me of them maybe I should start thinking of getting one...

The regular version takes C02 cartridges used for BB guns. Now they have a new upgraded version that I think takes the paint ball canisters.

They are limited to 6 round burst because the valve freezes up. You could modify it to do full auto but the thing would freeze. The 6 round burst is so quick you can't really tell its not full auto honestly.

I think I paid close to $200 for mine about 2 years ago.

Greater mass at same velocity hits harder. ;)

That looks like a rip.

"They are then bead blasted to give them a “Tactical” matte finish"

FA and they used the "T" word.
