By Joe in Schaumburg, Illinois on 05/27/2013

Be sure to test fire for a good pattern.
5 of 5 stars
By Cole in Cedar Falls on 10/31/2013

Mine shoots low, but once I compensate for that it's great. I've even taken a flying wasp down from 3 ft. It won't kill them, but it will shred their wings so you can finish them off easier. Much bett…
