Own an X-Products Can Cannon? You might have a problem.

This news item has elements of handgun, rifle, accessory, shotgun and NFA, so I decided to list it here for maximum exposure for anyone that might be affected.

This device is a rifle add-on which uses blank 5.56 cartridges to launch soda cans. Apparently the ATF has just decided that when used with a rifle/handgun, it makes it an SBR/AOW. Details at the links below.

Doing what's best for the chirren

 

[scoutsniper]

They seriously need to do more important **** with their time..

 

[Joniki]

I would guess a golf ball launcher is an AOW in their eyes as well...

 

[JollyMon]

Was about to purchase one of these a couple weeks ago. Glad I held off.

From their facebook, they have a new design being submitted.... "we are eliminating the first 1.05" of space between the first port. It should solve the problem"

I am sure they consider trapping as many people as possible in the byzantine web of laws, regulations, and letters of determination as administrative felons at or near the top of their list of priorities.

What a waste of soda.

 

[actaeon277]

Maybe we should require ALL laws and regulations to go through elected officials, NOT bureaucrats.

What a waste of soda.

Alcohol abuse.

These things lead to littering. Good thing that the government stepped in!

You're kidding. Right?

Of course! Low hanging fruit. Its easier to harass us than to go after dangerous types.

 

[BogWalker]

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say yes he was.

 

[Markus]

Think it through..this is the same as silverware making you fat. Of course I am kidding. Sometimes my ever so slight sarcasm is too subtle and I apologize for that. I am a work in progress.

Oh good. I asked only because around here, you never know. Ha ha! Purple font is your friend on this one.

 

[chef1231]

Slidefire will be next on the list. I give it till the end of the year

I guess I had not figured the purple font thing out yet. Just so I am clear, if you want folks to know you are attempting (in my case) sarcasm you should use the purple font?

 

[pudly]

Yes exactly. The point is that sarcasm doesn't always come across clearly in plain text. Sometimes it is blindingly obvious you are joking. Other times it is more subtle. The latter case should really be purple to clarify what you mean.
