I have zero need for this, but I'm very tempted.
Anyone know how far it'll launch a golf ball? |

I've always wondered how much trouble I could get in with one of these and a 3d printer for creating "pop cans"

FWIW- I already own TWO uppers. One is kinda a beater I drag to shoots. The other is a spare that I got on a super deal and few years ago (~$100 iirc).
I got in on this deal for the blanks. Last time I purchased M200 blanks, I paid $260/1,000 so even with shipping +sales tax, I am only paying less than $20 for the launcher. The launcher might become a gift for a friend who has enjoyed shooting mine. I hope these are M200 blanks and work with the F5 upper

His will launch a golf ball over 300+ yards easily at the right angle. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I do have a 5 gal bucket of old golf balls in the garage I think Other than that not sure what I would do with it or why. Do they make special golf balls that are filled with chalk? Would need to stay intact until they hit the ground or whatever. It depends on what class license you have.....

Mine shoots balls around 350 yds, depending on angle.
All knuckle balls. Going to try using a .22 ramshot through a 22 pistol and see what distance the small, med, and heavy loads can get. Look up used golf balls in your area. Damn cheap |

Some are really hard to push into the tube and I'm assuming that trying to fire one of those could have less than ideal consequences. |

Could have been put to good use in 2020 at certain *mostly peaceful gatherings". Rooftop launched golf balls would have been......entertaining.
