        Nah. Maybe 20 - 30 grains of salt. If you stick a piece of foil on the wall and shoot you can see the spray pattern.

        I have stood on the chair at Christmas lunch and asked everyone if they want any seasoning. They all declined the cowards.

      Bringing a salt gun into the dunny is dedication.

        Not quite. I went in there, shut the door and I hear buzzing. Eyes wide “QUICK, GET MY GUN. IT’S IN HERE”.

          Can you recommend a brand of salt gun? I want one too. Never heard of them before but I want one. $50 seems the going price.

          I’m really tempted to get one. Had no idea they existed before you raving on about them lol.

            They’re super fun. I shot my brother in the gut with it because he asked me to. His reaction “fuck that hurt”. 15 minutes later “that really fucking hurt”.

            I want one but it also feels like the ultimate dad gift so I’ll wait to see if the family get me one first

              Ultimate “anyone who doesn’t like spraying fly spray inside” gift. So not just for dads. They also come in hot pink. I wish I had that one.

                I had a look on aliexpress and you can get them for around $50 or less, so I might treat myself to one

                  Shit yeah. You can also get a laser that sits on top for a more precision aim.
