The best cap lifter ever was the  paint can opener the used to give you (maybe they still do?) when you bought paint at a hardware store.  Used to call it a "Church Key".

I see that becoming common on college campuses as part of a drinking game.

This sort of stuff is always great fun ......  until someone (usually an innocent bystander) loses an eye  ;)

Huh, and to think we spent hours perfecting the skill of snapping them at each other or into targets with just our fingers.  I can still shoot one 25-30 feet and get it into a target the size of an open garage door!  ;)

I sort of bought one of those on accident.  I was really excited to get it in the mail.  Then, when I got it, it didn't work NEARLY as well as the video. 

Not sure if mine is just weak or something, but when I fire it, the cap only goes about 2 feet and then drops to the ground.  If I make a flinging motion with my hand while I fire it the cap sails a little better but at that point I could just be tossing them by hand.   :rant:

Perhaps it needs an upgraded spring???

Just goes to show you the old method of snapping them with your fingers is best!   :whistle:

Maybe the Health & Safety bods read my post about eyes and decided to detune the spring ?   :rofl:

That's how you make a Nerf gun halfway decent, so it wouldn't hurt to mess with it and see.
