Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By hollowhandle: You guys will love them. It’s a blast. Unless there's a cross breeze on the shooting line and you're down wind. I cleaned way too much stale bud light off of my kit after Cheesecake. But it was fun to watch. Next time, it's my turn. I guess I should order up some blanks. ETA: After reading about the load variance in blanks, I'm just going to get some from F5. They're out, so I got on the wait list. ETA2: Got an email from F5 that they have their blanks in stock. I ordered 150. Kind of pricey. But if I have issues, "I'm using your blanks." |

Well, HRT4ME just left for home.
Before going, he handed me my new golf ball/can cannon. It looks great. Finish is good, so I slipped in a spare BCG. Snug but slides in the upper ok. Can't wait for this rain to stop so I can try it out. Thanks to HRT4ME for getting this order together. |

I just emailed everyone, so check your inbox...
The can launcher is $111.20 and the accessory golf ball attachment is $16.92 (and shipping was free), so the total is $128.12 for the majority of you who ordered both... |

Trying to decide if I'll put the forward assist in it. I've got one laying around here some place. ETA: and thanks, hrt4me, for putting this together. FYI folks: F5 just jacked the price of their blanks by 25% in the last couple of days. There were $20 for 50 Pews on Wednesday. Today they're showing as $25 for 50 Pews. Shipping appears to be a flat rate of $15. Though that was my rate and could of gone up too. |

They also have a 20% off code Arf20. I picked up the launcher today. Hopefully my blanks will arrive this week. |

Picked mine up Saturday as well. Atlantic Wall has the blanks in stock, ordered them last night and was told this morning they should ship tomorrow. A group buy to save on hazmat shipping of $20.00 would be in everyones best interest going forward I think.

Are these barrels gonna hold up to the Atlantic Wall stuff?
After years of requests for a 5.56mm blank that simulates the sound of live rifle fire we produced it in this round. Muzzle flash from 20 inch rifle is an 8 inch wide tear drop. Flash gets progressively bigger with reduction in barrel length. Sound is on par with a live round with a sharp boom. Now used in films, reenactments, security and most heavily in active shooter, force on force, MilSim, and security training, this is the perfect option for price and performance. Short blank has been designed and revised to feed well in 30 round mags. 20 rounds mags are not recommended. Can be used for golf ball launching but is generally a bit too hot for barrels under 20 inches. NOT FOR USE WITH YELLOW OR RED MILITARY BFA. NOT FOR USE IN THE X PRODUCTS CAN CANNON. THIS ROUND WILL BLOW THE CAN APART IN THE TUBE. |
