Total Xstream Air Tube Missle

01 June 2007 - 03:38 PM

My friend and I were quite bored last night around 2am, so we decided to head to the local Wal-Mart and see if we could find anything interesting.

Heading through the toy section, I stumbled across this interesting piece of plastic..

It consists of a simple "plunger", a plunger tube, and a barrel attached right to the tube. It claimed it could shoot the massive missle that comes with it around 35'. For $1.99, I picked up two of them for the hell of it.

The missle shot 60'! Level body shot, very minimal skippage off concrete. I tried an angled shot, 75'!

I think this thing has some potential. The barrel has a generic LBB air restrictor cap at the end. The barrel diameter looks like you could just slip some brass or some OMC PETG right in there. I'll be playing around with these things this weekend and let you know the results.

In summary:
Product: Total Xstream Air Tube Missle
Price: $1.99
Location: Wal-Mart
Potential: Seems pretty swee

Due to lack of interest (aka, down to 6 people), CANO is cancelled until further notice. Will try and schedule an event for Thanksgiving break.
