DRENCHING GUN
H2000.95
Blue and yellow drenching gun. Long metal nozzle is attached to a clear plastic measuring cylinder (with graduation marks) encased in yellow painted metal. A metal pipe with black plastic plunger is then attached to the measuring cylinder. A plastic tube is attached to the metal pipe, and at the end of the tube is a black plastic lid, which would attache to a container of drenching chemicals. Extending vertically from the metal pipe is a blue painted metal handle with a coiled spring on the interior and a yellow painted metal lever. The blue hand is gripped while the yellow lever is pressed forward, pressing the metal pipe and black plunger forward and forcing drenching liquid out through the plastic measuring cylinder and metal nozzle, into the sheep's mouth.
