My new toy should be here Monday. I got the X-Products X-FORE Can Cannon Launcher Package + M200 Blanks while it's on sale. I wouldn't have bought the Golf Ball Launcher with the Can Cannon, but it was only about 8 1/2 dollars more than buying a Can Cannon and bag of blanks. At least that's what I came up with on my calculator a few times when I triple checked it. Now it's almost a $30 difference. I think they lowered the price of the Can Cannon itself. If you have an old first generation Can Cannon, you can buy a Gen 2 Threaded Port that the golf ball launcher screws onto. With good G.I. blanks they say it can shoot a golf ball up to 500 yards, but I'll find something to use as a direct-fire target.

I bought it mainly to launch cans anyway, but I have a handful of golf balls I found that I'll shoot. I think I'm a mile and a half from the nearest golf course, but every few years a golf ball just shows up on the street or in the yard. I don't know where they come from.
