Ambidextral Airsoft
Ambidextral Airsoft
You gotta bug problem?
The Bug-A-Salt has been around since 2012. By now I suspect billions of insects have met their demise from a shotgun blast of salt…that is not 10 gauge, not 12 gauge, but 920 gauge firing crystalline fly-shot. There are now more powerful versions of the pump action, spring air blasters. Versions 3.0 and 3.5 as well as this “California Compliant” Ez-Cock 2.6 version. Speaking of “cock”, there is a Rooster edition of the 3.0 series that is for “adult entertainment” only.
Having no buttstock they are kind of like a Mossberg Shockwave…uhhh…SaltWave. The 3.5 Widowmaker adds a butt stock, vertical grip on the pump, and sling attachment points. Nice. I’d like to see an ambidextrous Bullpup version…for the Ambidextral BugFighter.
Using simple table salt and human muscle to charge, these are very practical bug killing machines, but let's face it there is more to this than simple practicality. This is about accepting personal responsibility for eradicating the arthropod menace.
The laser sight is a nice addition, but given that most people who buy these are likely gun owners, a picatinny rail on top and MLok underneath would let us redeploy some lasers or red dots cluttering the parts drawer. Mount a weapon light as bait to entice the bugs and then salt them…bug assault them.
Other firearm standards I’d like to see…QD sling sockets, buttstock attachment compatible with AR buffer tubes, and MLok on the pump to access the enormous variety of vertical grips and hand stops. I’d love to mount a Viridian 4Lux 2k Duo….angled grip, light, and laser. As well as a MagPul single point sling and MFT Battlelink buttstock. Similarly a standard AR grip interface would allow me to mount up a BCM KD grip.
With these improvements, an arms race would be unleashed and the arachnid extermination begun in ernest. Locate a bug hole…salt it.
However, for Hard Target Interdiction on pests like carpenter bees and scorpions, you’ll need more kinetic energy…The CO2 powered Shred-er is the Dirty Harry, single action/double action, “make my day” revolver of the Bug-A-Salt world. Unfortunately this boost in stopping power pushes the cost to 15 cents per round once you factor in the CO2 cartridges and non-reloadable salt magazines. Kind of like taking out a Houthi porta-potty with a Tomahawk. It might be fun creating a shit storm, but financially asymmetrical…this time in favor of the insects. And since you should not leave a CO2 cartridge in the gun during storage, the cost per kill asymmetry gets even worse if you just need to dispatch a single centipede. But I bet it’d be loads of fun if you have a carpenter bee infestation…taking down the hovering, wood boring bees with sodium chloride flack.
The Shredder is Single Action/Double action. Single action…cock the hammer and fire. Kind of a heavy trigger by SA firearm standards. Or double action that will challenge your ability to hold the revolver steady during the trigger press. Powerful enough, think pellet pistol, that it could potentially damage furniture or break fragile items..so don’t, as the user’s manual suggests, be an idiot.
I recommend the standard pump action Bug-A-Salt for regular mobile infantry and the Shred-er for Hard Target Interdiction and to establish air supremacy.
Salt guarantees citizenship…I’m doing my part.

For those who who own a Walther PPQ M1 Classic, this is a pretty sweet training aid for practicing point shooting in your backyard.

With our family's adoption of the Sig Sauer P365XL as the standard 9mm carry pistol, we all had high hopes for this airgun copy.
Ambi skills play a role in this Airsoft performance. Given the guy's background, I bet he'd demonstrate exceptional team communication and coordination.
Because sometimes those airsoft guns are not so soft.
