The annoying kiddie copter will have to be flying damned low to be shot
down by a pistol. Perhaps a powerful pump and nozzle will do the trick.

When I was a teenybopper, I thought slot cars and the commercial slot
car track was the cat's pj's.

Have you ever seen those Belagio water cannons?
It is not just a nozzle and a pump. They have a column of water in a
pipe and they dump a large amount of high pressure air in there to
shoot it out. (The History Channel did a show on it)
The one I made was 3" PVC barrel and one of those bladder tanks like
you use on a well pump (the bladder was shot but the tank was still
OK)
If I put ~100 PSI in that sucker and let it go with a sprinkler
solenoid valve that slug of water would go 60+ feet, pretty much as a
single "bullet". I imagine I could increase the range by necking it
down to 2".

I have made a few air cannons. They are actually fun to play with. I
made one that would shoot an orange well over 100 yards (not sure
exactly how far because it was on the other side of the river). That
was 150 PSI in a Freon tank.

I remember the fountains at the Bellagio and that the joint had an
almost decent buffet for something like $25. I've been to Vegas too many
times, always in connection with union meetings, and it probably is one
place I won't mind ever not visiting again. I preferred Vegas when the
mob ran it.
