Title: Airsoft Tank for Office Fun
Post by: Ben on June 03, 2008, 04:59:08 AM
I occasionally get the "BudK" catalog (one of those "knives and other stuff" catalogs) in the mail, and usually just chuck it. This time I happened to peruse through it and saw this, which I just ordered. For 30 bucks, I don't care if it ends up being a piece of crap, I'll get at least a couple of days of annoying my coworkers out of it.  grin

I want one of those remote controlled blimps with airsoft on it, and a camera with targeting.

For tradeshows.

I was thinking more to ping the other company reps on the top of the head while they were making a pitch.
