Unless you get a discount at JL I think they are even more expensive than Soak & Sleep.

Unfortunately not. I'd have saved a fortune if I had though

It's a toy gun so grown adults can run about the woods playing army.
They shoot though! Actual plastic pellets!
Yeah but it’s better than losing your virginity.

Yes, but I bet they don't use afe-enders as grenades like in the good old days.
Elf & safety an' all that.
Many years ago, my mate, a gun enthusiast, boasted he could hit the 'Play' button on a DVD without the need for a remote.
Well, the BB gun hit the play button just fine and the button internals obliterated. No film that night.
The guns nowadays, when compared to the late nineties, must be in a different league.

Better than going into a high school don't you say

Come play paintball in Herefordshire, you often get the SAS show up...us mortals have stood no chance lol
Depends on the gun, standard rifles are a mild sting. However getting hit with a close to fps limit dmr running 0.36g bb's at 10 meters or so will bring tears to some.
Its a good laugh, and a fun way of getting some exercise in the process.
This is my second rifle, you really need a backup just in case one breaks.

New scissors - wife broke the Kitchen Devils and some lock laces

I was skeptical about it but when I first tried it I realized how fun it was. I no longer do it (other stuff going on) but im very tempted to get back into it.
Site rules should state no overkill - being hit 2-3 times is plenty. Tries to stop someone going full auto for no reason.
Out with the old, in with the new.
1) Six BT Whole Home mesh wifi discs. I've always had dead spots in the kitchen and slow internet at the top of the house due to the completely solid walls. My kids and wife have often complained that their ipads keep disconnecting as well (strangely didn't affect my amazingly cheap Android devices though). I only have an aging Home Hub 3 router from about 2007 so it doesn't even have the latest wifi standards. So when I saw the refurbished Whole Home discs on sale I thought I'd try them. I think I went a bit overboard though and don't need six.
Three discs seem to cover the whole house; one in the living room, one in the kitchen and one on the first floor. I get 39mbps next to the router (that's the limit of my DSL connection - this wifi is capable of much more) and it only drops to 38mbps throughout the house, apart from the second floor, where I haven't yet placed a disc, which drops to 29mbps. I'm undecided whether to just put another disc up there and sell the two spares, or just stick with three and return the other three for a refund. Very happy with it though. Yes it's the budget end of the mesh wifi ecosystem and is not advanced as others. But one advantage of it is that it doesn't require a matched router. So I can swap out the router or even swap DSL for cable and still use the mesh. That's quite relevant as I'm considering going for a much faster fibre broadband soon.
2) A Roku streaming stick+. I decided to cut the cord, ditch Sky and use Netflix, Amazon Video, Now TV (Sky owned obviously) and TV Player on the Roku. It's taking a little getting used to after having a Sky box for about 11 years but I'm also very pleased with it so far.

Do the BBs get picked up at the end? Or do you just litter the place with plastic balls?
