Slingshot?
That's a $47k fine right there or up to 2 years in the slammer :(
Still thinking about that option. Place backs on to a lot of uninhabited empty space so no one would be at risk.
Youβre not even allowed a potato gun or a glove gunβ¦ damn.
Got any garden stakes? How good is your throwing arm?

hehe what a throw love that.
Oh shit, I've got a potato gun. Seriously, are those things illegal? π§π³
Oh man idk, Iβm getting conflicting info

After reading a bit, I think it's based on whether it uses combustion as propulsion of the potato missile, whether it obviously looks to be a kids toy, whether it has potential to cause bodily harm or is over a certain size. Was a very entertaining read!
I wonder about net guns. That would certainly make a drone fall out of the air.
Ahaha, spud gun was my first thought, too.
very powerful hose?
