Buy pea shooter & ammo?

[Riejufixing]

Wanted: a decent pea-shooter and nice aerodynamic dried peas, the smooth sort not the wrinkly ones. Where to buy each?

[hedgehugger]

Tesco still sell dried peas, so I guess the other main supermarkets will also do so.
I noticed dried chickpeas, so if you really want to make someone go ouch they have a pointy-ish bit would need a bigger bore tube though.

There are some sort of 'blow tubes' on Amazon, come with small balls. More exciting news, I spotted a spud gun!!

But are wrinklly ones less aerodynamic? Are golf balls smooth?

Maybe time for an experiment.

Also, mung beans.

Cap guns use caps. Spud guns use spuds. Maybe you are too young to remember those

No idea about which pea is which. I just looked on their website to check they still sell stuff.
Could have given you the usual link

the dry frozen peas used to come with a little soda tablet in, that was exactly the same size as an extra strong mint, and I used to slip one into a packet of mints before handing them round when I was a kid

The bit of spud was fired out by air pressure. They could also fire caps, either by themself or at the same time, the cap wasn't the propellant.

I bought a cheap fake gun in France when I was a kid, revolver that took blanks, discharged down the barrel. Had an attachment that could take flares. Didn't have any flares, but rammed AA batteries in there and fired them down the garden.

They fire pretty much anything that will fit in the barrell, bbs 177 pellets, darts and corks are the standard ammo

Corks eh?
Ah yes, jerseys for goal posts and all that.

I had a double barrel shot gun that fired corks but the
cool thing was they had string through the corks tied to the trigger guard
so after you shot a baddie, you could run off to kill more without losing your ammo.

Them injuns never stood chance

What you want is a short airsoft barrel (brass, 6mm ID) and some airsoft 6mm BBs. Tried and tested, the most perfect 'pea' shooter to be had.

You'll only shoot one or two jackdaws. They are too clever to be shot. They will see you getting the gun/peashooter out through the window and fuck-off. But will hang about squaking at you when you're unarmed.

Sell the Weihrauch, you'd get a decent price.
At 30 years old with only one tin of pellets through it its probably never been re-lubed and there's a chance the piston seal has deteriorated.
There aren't many springers out there I'd consider quiet enough for backyard plinking anyway.
Get yourself a nice Air Arms S410, all you hear is a pfft.

Catapult's what you want.
Silent but deadly.
