Richard, maybe I don’t understand what Amazon is doing but when I
clicked the link it had the pic, price and description but also said

“
This item cannot be shipped to your selected location.

So...



Apparently it's ok to ship to Massachusetts because when I go to the
Amazon page with it's description I don't see any notice about it
not being available to ship to my location.

My son ordered in South Carolina but had it dropped shipped directly
to my address, so I guess it's not prohibited.

Finally found a "gun" that is legal in Massachusetts but banned
in other states. That's a first! :-)

Wonder if it ships up here?
I'd probably need a full automatic for the mosquito hoards that are
plaguing our local off-leash dog park.


The problem with mosquitoes is you kill one, and ten thousand come to the
funeral.

Amen!



Salt is cheap. Bring 'em on. :-)

Cracks me up that they cannot ship it to California, Connecticut or New

That is weird about the shipping. We can buy them here. Son in law gave
me one for Father’s Day last year. They are fun. One worry you have we
do not have as much of is the salt caking in the magazine. Mine did on
time. Seem to only cake there, and when I scraped,it out, all worked
well.



Maybe the old trick of mixing in some uncooked rice will prevent
caking of the salt if the humidity rises. It would still let the
salt load but the rice would be too big.


Crush up some silica gel in your salt or just shoot sand. I bet that
course silica they use in diamond brite would do a great job.


Might be too abrasive, like a New Yorker, for the plastic parts.

Plus, both sand and crushed up silica gel would be too big.
It's designed for salt. The finer, the better.
