![]() I wondered if I shot salt that was finer would it make the pattern denser? The pattern from my BUG-A-SALT 2.0 was very open, with large fly-sized holes where there was no salt. Going back to the pattern test I did for Part 2, I was reminded of how uniform it was, but only for the SHRED-ER. It was round and dense, and I could also sense that it missed the wasp by just a little each time. Each time I shot at her by just pointing I could see the white pattern of salt for just an instant. Guys - this is why “they” don’t shoot handguns that shoot shot at trap and skeet ranges. ![]() She skittered out of sight before I could stomp her. She wasn’t dead but she’ll never fly again with the holes I put in her wings. Bang went the revolver and down she went. Then she landed on my front door and I took careful aim. She was hovering and moving so I fired two SHRED-ER shots at her by just pointing the gun in her direction and I missed both times. So, after my brief safari I went back to my own house and, lo and behold, there was a wasp hanging around my front door. But whenever I show up with the SHRED-ER, they never come around. I actually had gone on safari over at my neighbor, Denny’s, house next door a few days ago, because he has a persistent batch of wasps that hang around his garage door when its open. So I had installed a CO2 cartridge a couple days before today and had loaded a fresh clip for just such an occasion. Unfortunately for him (or her - do insects still retain their gender without offense?) I am an airgunner, and when faced with impossible instructions I just do what I want. Or that large spider that came out on your front walk this morning. So - a CO2-powered bug swatter that you have to depressurize at the end of the day will never be ready for that fast-moving water beetle that just ran across your living room floor. Like the Ferrari that gets 16 miles to a charge that we recently discussed. Today’s equivalent would be electric cars whose mileage is limited by battery technology. The water tank held 30 gallons which was good for about 30 miles or so in the cars that didn’t recirculate. ![]() The Stanley took a long time to get up some steam and also got about one mile per gallon of water, unless it recirculated the steam, which some did but others did not. What is an example of impracticality? How about an automobile that takes 20-30 minutes to start? How about the Stanley Steamer? In its day it wasn’t that bad because most cars were impractical in one way or another.

Similar to Bill, who blew up after he showed up at SHOT SHOW in 1986 with a few REALTREE garments, some mannequins, and no credibility in the manufacturing world – BUG-A-SALT’s Lorenzo Maggiore has managed to overcome great odds, continues to innovate, and aspires for BUG-A-SALT to become a household name. BUG-A-SALT is proud to honor Bill Jordan’s legacy with this special, limited edition 3.0 model, featuring REALTREE’s EDGE pattern.
