Pros: Great toy to have fun at work. We already used to have "elastic wars", but now we are at a new level of refinment! I really like the fact that you can load about 5 elastics in the gun and shoot them all in about 2 seconds!

Cons: The elastic actualy go flying when you release the trigger, not when you press it. Kind of weird at first...

Other Thoughts: I did the laser mod (as posted in some of the pictures), it make the whole thing so much cooler!

Bottomline: Great toy for cheap fun around the office. Just make shure security dosen't freak out!

Fair quality toy.

Pros: Simple mechanism, a child can work it with little or no help.
It can allso be easily repaired if something comes lose.

High capacity, has 12 pegs for holding rubber bands.

Low price.

Cons: Build quality leaves something to be desired, the plastic parts are nice but they are mounted to the wooden gun using wooden pegs and these are not allways straight or securely fastened, meaning that the mechanism may get stuck or come loose entirely on some guns.

The "wood stain" is actually achieved by burning the wood, so they are quite sooty when they arrive, may be nessesary to sand down the guns before letting children use them to avoid soot stains all over the house.

Other Thoughts: To make the less well made guns work it may be nessesary to remove the wooden pegs holding the mechanism, re-drilling the holes and replacing the pegs with longer ones that can go entirely through the gun, and glueing them in place.

It may allso be nessesary to glue the barrel onto the gun.

Bottomline: If you are somewhat handy with simple repairs, this might save you a lot of money compared to buying expensive toys sold in the west, but if you are not handy with repairs, expect about every other gun to have problems.

You will not find it anywhere else.

Pros: It is a toy but that cannot cause any mess. You receive few but enough rubbers. Of cause you can use your ones but they should be at the right size.
It throws the rubber about five meters away.

Cons: Maybe a future add of rubbers' self-loading mechanism.

Other Thoughts: It could stand alone like an old relic due its color and its material as it is brown, wooden and has such an old shape like the first real pistols. This why it is called classical.

Bottomline: If you like the odd gadgets this one is for you.
