Would a giant slingshot be ok?

They use them at the local ballpark.

I guess they’ve solved all of the other crimes in the Big Apple, then.

You can have a squirt gun but no water

One of my COVID projects with my 8-year-old grandson was building a Potato Cannon.....

Good times!

Firing at dusk you not only get the satisfying “thump” but also the flame shooting out the end......

The best I can tell we were getting three football fields in distance with Dollar General spray deodorant.....

That was just stupid to mount what looks like a cannon or .50 machine gun. What an idiot.

Does he have to turn it sideways to shoot it?

New York City requires a license to possess a BB gun.

New York City law requires anyone who possesses or sells an air pistol or air rifle to have a specific license to do so, with the exception of licensed operators of "an amusement" or an authorized pistol range.

“He was ticketed for unlawful possession of an air rifle.”

Very, very hard to believe! I doubt very much that the barrel of that gun has any rifling in it at all. That would damage the fabric of the T-shirts as they travelled down the barrel. If the rifling don’t fit, you got to aquit. It is not an air rifle... it is just a big pop gun.

Did the NY Mets license their T-shirt launcher? Or is this racist selective enforcement?

In Ft. Lauderdale mid 60s a man with a black 50s Dodge did a similar deed. He painted a washtub and a piece of PVC black, placed on the roof of the car to simulate a tank turret.
He was arrested/made to remove item.

Confiscate all fossil fuel vehicles because if you put a potato (or potatoe) in the exhaust pipe it becomes an air gun.

A separate “air gun permit” required. /s

โ€Care to guess how far this thing (or fossil fuel vehicles) can propel a Molotov Cocktail or bomb?โ€

Everyone knows the best place for a tee shirt cannon is inside a sports arena where targets are stationary.

Wow this thread is raining snowflakes.

I know the sight of a t-shirt launcher is unsettling but a lot of posters here need to get go back to their safe space and calm down.
