When watching Gold Rush.
Season 12 ep19
After the 44 minute mark, Parker is weighing gold.
Behind him in the windows is a yellow plastic looking gun .
Doesn't look cheap.
You will see it several times in the following minutes.
I know zip about paintball weapons or the game.
Seems like the only logical thing to me.

Well if it is then it's a bug-a-salt shotgun. They shoot table salt,it's for shooting flies. It's a blast at picnics and fun for barn windows. Range is about 2 yards on flies and about 6 inches on wasps any farther and they just get real mad. (Guess how I know) it's it's pump and resets the safety every time which is about the only thing I don't like. Also don't store it loaded or the salt hardens and is a pain to get out.
