Noise, bulk under the sleeve,.......... and batteries?.........."hey-hey-hey it's magic"......
It is a pretty quick card switch though, and I could see a clever magician developing some pretty deadly material with it. At least if you got caught mid-trick you'd just lose face as opposed to losing an actual part of your face. |

Vintage designs are potentially as effective today as they were "yesterday". A Bean-Shooter still does what it always did very well, and there are others as well. But true now as ever.........if you're caught, there's no "out" to be had. |
