I consider myself a toy gun aficionado—one who is versed in the latest non-lethal, non-painful weaponry. But I’d never heard of chalk guns before.
(My supreme apologies if you have. Please share you experiences in the comments.)
The WipeOut Chalk Gun is like a Nerf toy with ammunition tricked out by a school teacher. Packing chalk-tipped bullets (those just sound illegal, don’t they?), hitting your target will leave a mark of “chalk dust” that’s simple to wipe away. It’s easy cleanup for mum and even easier arguments for kids, as screams of “he cheated” are muffled by clouds of non-toxic coloured powder.
A pack of two guns will run you $US36, with ammunition refills going for $US8 a pop. [amazon via technabob]

We’ve had these guns for a few months at Target.
Report PermalinkMe and my manager pulled a couple out one night to play around with them. They aren’t as powerful and accurate as other Nerf guns. Also the darts are incompatible with the other nerf guns we had in stock at the time.
