Gas guns without electricity. Choosing a gas heat gun for a garage, other premises, suspended ceilings. What gas is used

Having built a house, what does a person first of all start to think about?

Absolutely true! You correctly assumed that every person always dreams that his home will always be cozy and comfortable.

Such an idyll is achieved only thanks to warmth! Therefore, every home owner, first of all, always tries to establish optimal system heating your home.

But here's the problem! Sharp frosts hit, and heating system does not heat the room quickly enough to the required temperature. What then should be done in this case? There is only one alternative: go and buy a multifunctional unit called gas.

But not everyone knows what a gas heat gun is. In this article we will try to talk in detail about this type of heating units, as well as in which areas of life the use of gas-powered heat guns will be effective.

What is

A unit that generates warm air flow based on gas combustion is called a gas heat gun.

The design of the heat gun consists of the following important elements:

It is also worth noting that all these components are housed in a reliable metal case. This material for the housing was chosen based on the fact that during operation of the unit a lot of heat is generated, in other words, the housing gets quite hot.

How it works

To understand how a gas heat gun functions, you need to pay attention to the following important points:

What gas is used

To operate a heat gun, as a rule, propane or butane gas is used, which is located in special cylinders.

This, in turn, allows you to use a gas heat gun in any place, since the unit in this form will become a fairly mobile device.

It is also worth noting that the heat gun can be successfully connected to the main gas pipeline using a special hose. In this case, the unit becomes a full-fledged room heating element, which can easily replace the existing heating system.

Areas of application

The most effective is the use of gas heat guns when performing the following production operations:

1. Heating of premises. The use of a heat gun in this case allows you to quickly and efficiently heat a living space, various outbuildings, as well as production premises with a large area.
2. Ventilation of premises. If you turn off the gas supply to the unit, the heat gun will become a powerful fan, which will greatly promote air circulation in the room.
3. Heating of surfaces and individual objects. The point directionality of the air flow of heat guns allows, for example, their effective use when drying newly plastered surfaces.

   The use of gas heat guns during installation is also considered indispensable. suspended ceilings. This is due, first of all, to the fact that the ceiling material becomes more plastic when it heats up quickly.

Manufacturers

The modern heating equipment market has enough wide range gas heat guns. And, despite the fact that a heat gun is a rather specific piece of equipment, nevertheless, many manufacturers present their own versions of this type of gas equipment.

Today the most popular brands of heat guns are the following brands:

Equipment rating

Among the above brands, we can highlight the following several models of heat guns, which are confidently the leaders in sales of units of this type.

Interskol TPG-15. The power of this gas gun model can vary from 3 to 15 kW.

The productivity of the device is 300 m3/h, while the fuel consumption rate is 0.73–1.3 kg/h.

In the heat gun of this model, it is possible to use propane gas, as well as butane.

Neoclima IPG 15. As a rule, this model includes a gas reducer and a hose.

The fuel consumption of the heat gun is 1.4 kg/h.

At the same time, the power is 18 kW, and the productivity is 400 m3.

Fubag. The most popular model of gas heat gun of this trademark is Fubag Brise 15.

The uniqueness of this model lies in the fact that with a productivity of 500 m3, fuel consumption is only 1–1.2 kg/h.

Unit power – 18 kW. The gas heat gun of this model is equipped with quality system protection, as well as a flame control device.

Watch the video in which a specialist explains in detail the design and operating principle of a gas heat gun using the example of choosing equipment for installing suspended ceilings:

Air heating is good because it does not require installation. One of the popular options for utility and industrial premises is a gas heat gun. This device quickly warms up the air, however, it cools down just as quickly when the gun is turned off.

Device

This heating device is called a cannon for a reason: it is a cylinder on a support; more massive models have wheels for easier movement. Compact models are equipped with a special carrying handle. During operation, the case heats up to significant temperatures, so you shouldn’t touch it.

Device of direct heating gas guns

There is a fan in a cylindrical housing, followed by a burner behind it (closer to the “exit”). Air is sucked in from back side housing, passes through the fan, blowing the burner. Gas is supplied to the burner, which is ignited by ignition. The gas is mixed with the air flow, which promotes more complete combustion.

Gas heat gun good quality designed so that even on the most high power the flame torch does not extend beyond the body. There should be only a stream of hot air at the outlet. As you can see, the device is not too complicated and its operating principle is simple. The design is complemented by filters - air and fuel, various sensors and safety devices.

Indirectly heated gas guns

The main disadvantage of the above design is that combustion products remain in the room. It is clear that this has a negative impact on well-being and, as a result, on overall health. But this option has a very high efficiency - 95-98%. Therefore, these are the models that are chosen in production or for temporary use.

Eat gas guns no exhaust. More precisely, the exhaust is removed from the room through a pipe. The design of such models is more complex. The combustion chamber is the same cylinder, only it is sealed in relation to the room. In the upper part it has an outlet pipe through which combustion products are removed. Heating occurs due to the fact that the air driven by the fan blows through the combustion chamber, taking away heat from the walls. That's why these models are called - heat guns Not direct heating. First, the heat exchanger heats up, and the air from it heats up.

To ensure more complete heat extraction, gas from the combustion chamber moves through a labyrinth. This increases the efficiency, but this figure still does not rise above 80-85%. But such installations do not harm health, they can be used on a long-term basis.

On at the moment, the range of indirectly heated gas guns is very scarce, and the prices are high. First of all, these devices are aimed at large production and warehouse premises.

Indirect heating gas gun Ballu JUMBO 200 T LPG. Maximum power - 220.9 kW, price - 512,000 rubles

Advantages and disadvantages

Let us remind you once again: a gas heat gun is not intended for use as permanent heating. It is great for quickly heating up a cold cottage, garage, etc. It performed well when heating buildings under construction. Can be used to speed up the drying of plaster and other mixtures (where technology allows it). But you should not use the unit for constant heating of a residential building.

Now the cons:

• It burns oxygen, so good ventilation is essential.
• Officially, refilling the cylinder is problematic (this is prohibited at gas stations);
• The expense is high.
• If the cylinder is in the cold, it burns poorly.
• Some models are very noisy.
• Electricity is required (for the fan to operate).
• The temperature in front of the nozzle of a working gun is very high.
• With half the gas in the cylinder, problems may begin: it often goes out. But this problem is typical for small-capacity cylinders. When using 50-liter ones everything is fine.

As you can see, far from ideal option. But to quickly remove the premises from subzero temperature in the positive - very good. For example, when you arrive at a dacha that is heated by a stove, do not freeze until it warms up, but turn on the gas heat gun and after 15-20 minutes you can undress. An alternative might be . It is perhaps better for a dacha, but you need to think about the garage and other technical premises.

Power selection

To roughly estimate the required power of heating devices, calculate by area. For a detached building in Middle Zone, requires 1 kW of heat per 10 square meters area. A gas heat gun is not intended for continuous heating. Usually it is taken to quickly warm up a technical room, cottage, garage, etc. Other devices are often used to maintain temperature. For this reason, traditional power calculations by area or volume are not suitable.

Calculation formula required power does not change:

• V is the volume of the room (multiply the height, width and length):
• dT is the temperature difference that needs to be ensured (you count the difference between the “starting temperature” from which you will begin to warm the air to the one you want to have in the room);
• Kt - thermal conductivity coefficient of walls, floor and ceiling. At good insulation from 1 to 2; with poor thermal insulation from 3 to 4; with excellent insulation from 0.6 to 1.
• 860 - kilocalories per 1 kW of heat.

It's easy to calculate. Let's give an example. A gas heat gun will heat a garage measuring 5 * 3.5 m, with a ceiling height of 3 m. The walls are one and a half bricks, only insulated metal gates. It is planned to increase the temperature from -10°C to +20°C. Substituting the initial data into the formula, we get:

In total, we found that this room could be heated by a 4.6 kW heat gun. But heating will last at least an hour - that’s how the formula is built. If you want to reduce the time, the power must be increased proportionally. If the time is halved (in 30 minutes), we multiply the power by two; to warm up in a quarter of an hour (15 minutes), the found power must be multiplied by 4:

• 9.2 kW will be warmed up in 30 minutes;
• in 15 minutes - 18.4 kW.

The above calculation is approximate, but it allows you to estimate the required parameters. For those who don’t like to count, there are tables in which everything has already been calculated. But they are given “on average” without taking into account the characteristics of your buildings. You will have to take into account the necessary parameters yourself, choosing from the proposed “fork” of capacities.

Selection criteria

Power is far from the only parameter that determines the choice. A gas heat gun still has a sufficient number of characteristics that are worth paying attention to.

Protective functions

Open fire and gas are a dangerous combination. In the case of a gas heat gun, there is also the possibility of poisoning carbon monoxide. So additional measures security is not at all superfluous. Here are the protective mechanisms this equipment may have:

• Protection of the electric motor from overheating. The temperature of the fan motor is monitored. When critical values ​​are reached, the gas is shut off. Restarting is possible only after the engine has cooled down.
• Flame control. If there is no flame on the burner, the gas supply valve closes.
• Protection against gas leaks. Cost of the analyzer atmospheric air. If the CO content is exceeded or the amount of oxygen is insufficient, the equipment is switched off.
• Rollover control. When the position changes, the gas supply is cut off. So, even if the heat gun falls, a fire is unlikely.

The only thing that may raise doubts is air control. Since the sensor is built-in, the state directly near the device is analyzed, which can distort the real data. Therefore, it is better to have a separate detector. Detectors (sensors) are inexpensive and can be programmed.

Performance characteristics

Power is far from the only parameter that characterizes the operation of gas heat guns. There are a few more that are simply necessary to understand how efficiently the unit will work.

As you can see, there are quite a few options. Not all are obvious, some can be missed, but in general, pay attention to them.

Ease of use

Despite the fact that outwardly one heat gas gun is practically no different from another, some are convenient to use, others are not. This can be tracked using the following criteria.

Once again, we draw your attention to the fact that a gas heat gun is intended for rooms in which people are not constantly present. With sufficient power, it will very quickly heat the air even in a frozen room. But after turning it off, it cools down just as quickly: only the air heated up, and not the walls and other enclosing structures. However, as a means of rapid heating, it is very effective (although it consumes a lot of fuel).

Manufacturers

The hardest part when buying is not choosing power or characteristics. This is, of course, important, but more important is the quality of the equipment. And it often depends on the manufacturer. Gas guns are no exception. Few people would agree to spend too much money on this equipment—the option is temporary. Usually they choose according to the price/quality criterion. “Half-Chinese” fit this category. These are those whose management is located in Europe-America, and production in China. Russian gas guns are in approximately the same category. Here is a list of popular brands:

It cannot be said that all models from the manufacturers listed above are successful. There are some that are very good, but there are some that are just so-so.

Popular models of gas guns

When choosing a gas gun both for heating rooms and for installing suspended ceilings, you should rely on reviews from real owners. Let's look at the most popular models different power.

Guns for suspended ceilings

Despite the fact that when installing suspended ceilings it is safer to use electric heat guns, they are more popular gas models direct heating. This is due to the fact that gas guns have more high power and efficiency.

As a rule, professional “ceiling guns” have in their arsenal guns of different power - under different area ceilings. If we are talking about rooms up to 20 m², then a heat gun with a power of about 15 kW is sufficient. For example, Master BLP 17 M (16 kW) and Ballu BHG-20 (17 kW) are suitable. IN small spaces It’s more convenient to work with compact guns. As for safety, many experts recommend using composite cylinders.

If more is required universal option, then a direct heating gas gun with a power of 30-50 kW will be optimal. For example, RESANTA TGP-30000 (30 kW) or Master BLP 33 M (33 kW).

Content

To maintain the room temperature at winter period in the absence central heating, you can use a gas gun, which has high rate Efficient and economical in energy consumption. Essentially, this is a gas fan heater, the advantages of which include mobility, ease of use, and low price.

What is a heat gun

The demand for such a modern unit increases significantly during the heating season, provided there is no central heating or its supply is of poor quality. Gas heating guns emit warm air, which is formed by burning gas. Externally, it is a streamlined metal body with a hole for the hot flow to escape, but inside the design is somewhat complicated and is represented by the following elements:

• burner;
• fan;
• heat exchanger;
• ignition device;
• control device;
• thermostat;
• additional devices depending on the design features.

Types of gas guns

Before making the final choice, it is important to find out what types of designs exist and which option is optimal in a particular case. The gas heat gun is very popular; it is necessary for heating and ventilating residential premises and drying large objects. The range is wide, but the classification provides only two design features - direct and indirect heating. Both options are suitable for household needs, but have different appearance, operating principle.

Direct heating

In this design, air flows are not purified from burning, so they all collect in the living room and poison oxygen. Directly heated gas guns are needed where there is sufficient natural or artificial ventilation. This is the main drawback of the gun, but 100% efficiency remains a significant advantage, minimum consumption energy and fuel.

Indirect heating

The ring heat exchanger acts as the main heating element, which operates on the following principle: first the gas is burned, then the toxic products that are released during the formation of the fuel. An indirectly heated gas heat gun is an environmentally friendly device, so its installation indoors is possible even with limited ventilation. The disadvantage of the mechanism is the presence chimney, which complicates the mobility and transportation of a gas-type gun.

How it works

Before using a gun at home, you need to understand in detail how it is designed, how it functions correctly, and which manufacturer is the best in a given direction. This significantly facilitates the final selection of a suitable design and simplifies the operation process. The operating principle of a gas gun is as follows:

1. The combustion chamber contains a special burner into which a gas flow is supplied.
2. Using the ignition device, the gas burns and the heat exchanger heats up.
3. The fan is pumping cold air from environment, is sent through a heat exchanger.
4. A thermostat specially integrated into the circuit protects the unit from overheating and breakdown.
5. The presence of a switch breaks electrical circuit when heating the room to the desired value on the thermometer.

Gas gun device

Such a home heater is used for domestic needs, and the preference of modern buyers is given to mobile types of gas “burner” with wheels and control knobs. Stationary guns are equipped gas cylinder, which is problematic to transport. The duration of operation of the unit itself and its technical characteristics depend on its volume. This stationary design of an indirect blow gas gun is considered obsolete and impractical to use; mobile models in the assortment are more in demand.

Gas heat gun

This independent device heating and structural components of a heating installation, necessary to maintain the necessary climatic conditions in a residential area and beyond. Heat gun on natural gas can be used for heating automobiles and special equipment, useful in the repair process and for installing suspended ceilings. The presence of a fan allows you to speed up the technological process, and the built-in thermostat controls the heating of the air flow. The gun runs on gas, suitable model can be ordered in the online store.

Propane gun

It is also called a loudspeaker because you can hear a loud bang during operation. If the previous model operates on gas, then this unit has its own design features. A propane heat gun is an environmentally friendly device and is often used to scare away birds and wild animals. Among the advantages, experts highlight simplicity of design, lightness and efficiency.

Application

Such gas-powered equipment is in demand in everyday life and in production, found wide application in the masses. This is not only quick heating of residential and non-residential premises, but also drying of individual items for automotive and industrial purposes. In addition, the use of a gas gun is appropriate for large areas - from 25 square meters. meters, in progress repair work, for example, when installing suspended ceilings.

For garage

These non-residential premises are characterized by dampness, which only hinders the storage and safety of personal vehicle. To dry the walls and remove fungus from the far corners, it is recommended to use gas guns for the garage. The purchase is not cheap, but the unit can additionally be used at home and in the country. It is important to take into account such parameters as the size of the garage, the quality of thermal insulation, and the presence of people in such non-residential premises. There are two options for choosing guns:

1. A gas gun can be used when there are no people in the room. The unit provides high operating power, fast heating of the garage, and minimal energy costs.
2. Diesel gun appropriate if people are or live in the garage. Thanks to the presence of an exhaust pipe, combustion products are efficiently removed and do not settle on the walls.

For heating residential premises

Considering the comparative characteristics described above, it becomes obvious that stationary direct airflow structures are not suitable for heating the specified space. A gas heat gun for residential premises must be equipped with an exhaust pipe so that combustion products do not linger in the living room. In addition, it is important to obtain high efficiency with minimal energy consumption.

For suspended ceilings

When carrying out repair work, this unit is also necessary. A gas heat gun for installing suspended ceilings is an indispensable “tool,” because when PVC film is heated to 65 degrees over the entire surface, it becomes elastic and pliable. The material easily lies on the ceiling and is firmly attached to pre-prepared gaps. If the gas gun is turned on when performing this type of work, condensation does not accumulate on the base plate while attaching the PVC film. This is one of the important advantages of the participation of the mechanism during repair work.

How to use a gas gun

If a person is superficially aware of how to turn on and off the specified mechanism, this does not mean that he is perfectly familiar with the use of heat guns. The principle of operation and operating rules can be studied in the instructions; if necessary, use the help of a specialist. When using a stationary gun, the following rules must be observed:

1. Avoid the presence of flammable substances in the room to avoid their ignition.
2. Ensure unhindered access of oxygen, due to which the gas gun actively supports the combustion process.
3. It is forbidden to block the outlet or turn on the fan.
4. Since air must circulate and not accumulate in the heat gun, it is necessary to install the unit in an open area to prevent clogging of the outlets.
5. Supply gas if the gas gun is not broken and is working properly.
6. Turn on the ignition button until the piezoelectric element or piezo ignition is activated.
7. To prevent fuel leakage, it would be advisable to additionally introduce a fuse into the circuit.
8. You should not save on fuel, otherwise the gas heat gun may very soon fail.

How to choose a gas heat gun

The most difficult thing is to make a choice, since the catalogs contain a huge number of items interesting design with unique technical characteristics. In order to buy a gas gun and not make a mistake, it is important to compare with electric and diesel designs. Some people prefer electric guns, where the main heating element is a heating element or a cylindrical spiral. However, it is important to understand the uneconomical nature of such a purchase for the future. Below are rated gas guns that have proven their effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of use.

Manufacturer

Ballu Industrial Group brand products are professional heat generators that do not require installation. All guns are mobile, and with the help of a special handle they can be easily and quickly transported. Photos of such cylindrical models can be found on numerous sites on the Internet, but before purchasing, measure the area of ​​the heated room and do not save on such an important purchase. Below are a few guns that were of particular interest to buyers:

• There are no cons.

Power

This is a determining criterion for selection, on which the rate of heating of the room and energy consumption depend. For domestic purposes, 10 kW is enough, but for large areas it is better to pay attention to the maximum power limit of 30 kW. Here are two proposals that are considered “hot” on the domestic market:

• model name – Sial KID 10 20821017;
• price – 4,300 rubles;

• characteristics – power – 10 kW, fuel consumption – 0.75 kg/h, runs on gas (propane, butane);
• advantages - fast and free shipping Bison MASTER in Moscow, affordable price, high technical performance;
• cons – customer reviews are not always positive.

Heating area

Many buyers choose a gas gun based on the heating area, and to do this, the first thing they do is measure the room. This prerequisite, otherwise the purchase will end up being completely useless. Gas structures they are standard ones, so all that remains is to decide on the company and your final choice. So:

• model name – REDVERG RD-GH30;
• price – 5,600 rubles;
• characteristics – power – 30 kW, presence of an overheating sensor, flame control, heating area – 300 square meters;
• pros – covers large spaces, affordable price;
• disadvantages – the need for artificial ventilation.

Heating large, large-scale rooms often requires the use of heavy artillery. This refers to a gas heat gun. Despite their somewhat “militarized” name, such guns are designed exclusively for use for peaceful and creative purposes. Their main function is technological drying and heating.

The purpose of this “weapon” is drying and heating

Use of modern heat guns

Most often, a heat gun is used in construction warehouses, sites, greenhouses, utility rooms and other places where other household heaters become simply helpless. This technique is great solution when it is necessary to retain heat in a room that is not heated on a constant basis. The device can act as a completely independent or additional heating system.

The equipment discussed is most popular on modern industrial warehouses. When loading or unloading any product through an open door, streams of cold air constantly rush into the room. It is enough to remember the dimensions of any warehouse door to fully understand the complexity of the task. A gas heat gun is capable of stably maintaining the set temperature for a long time, even in such difficult conditions.

It is also problematic to do without such guns when performing various technological processes. The point is not at all in maintaining a comfortable temperature, but in the technologies of the processes themselves. For example, installing a stretch ceiling is only possible using a powerful thermal equipment, creating the required temperature so that the mounted material acquires the necessary properties. A gas heat gun is often used to speed up the drying of various paint and varnish materials, or simply for drying the premises.

Design of heat guns

In general, heat guns are powerful and fast climatic equipment. Such “weapons” can easily cope with heating the largest area. The technique helps to install enough in any room comfortable temperature in a matter of minutes. After starting operation, the thermal heating system immediately begins supplying warm air into the room. This is what it is main feature, which determines the popularity of the application.

It is easy to understand that the features of a weapon are the result of a specific design. Like an ordinary heater, the equipment in question consists of a fan, a housing and a heating element.

Only the fan in such a mechanism is much more powerful than a regular household one. This factor is the main component of success. Without a powerful fan, there would not be such effective heating in the shortest possible time. It is the fan that pushes air through heating elements, releasing warm streams at the outlet.

The body of the heat gun also has some features, which is not made of plastic, which is familiar to everyone in home heaters. The body is made of metal. This technological solution due to highest temperature inside the device. After all, the plastic case would simply melt in such conditions. In addition, metal protection necessary when using guns at industrial facilities and construction sites(where they are most in demand).

Some models are complemented by specialized control systems or a thermostat. All this is included directly in the design of the guns, or works in offline mode. The presence of such a system helps to raise the price, but serves for convenience and ensuring high level operational safety. With the help of such systems, the air temperature in the room is controlled, as well as the temperature of the gun itself. This is convenient when the owner intends to leave the heater for a long time without proper supervision.

Gas heat guns

Gas guns are less mobile, but more economical. Buying such a device is not so expensive. It will solve all problems with constant heating. The gun is often used even in private garages, country houses, or in other large premises. It's worth saying that gas heater copes with all tasks perfectly, while consuming much less electrical energy. The power of the device sometimes reaches 140 kW.

The heaters discussed operate exclusively on natural or liquefied gas. Despite this, it is also impossible to do without the consumption of electrical energy. After all, it will be required for the operation of the fan - one of the most important nodes. In addition, electricity is also needed for all kinds of additional equipment such as thermostats. Fully autonomous heat guns, operating without electricity, would have to have extremely complex design, and therefore, an exorbitant cost. Various attempts to “invent” such a mechanism and assemble it with your own hands are highly not recommended. A “homemade heating system” of this kind would certainly be incredibly dangerous.

Heat guns powered by gas are the optimal balance between design complexity and cost. The work uses natural gas supplied through pipelines, butane, or propane, which is sold exclusively in specialized cylinders. When using propane or butane, the presence of lines is not at all necessary.

Refill the gas gun liquefied gas It is also possible at all kinds of gas stations that are suitable for refueling cars. Even renting a heater most often includes a special hose that connects heating equipment with a balloon. Actually, the presence of a gas cylinder or the attachment of the entire device to a stationary source makes the type of equipment under discussion much less mobile.

Completely regardless of which gas the heat gun operates on, we should not forget that the pressure in the cylinder or line must meet all the requirements of the heater model. It is known that the simplest of them, the power of which does not exceed 10 kW, requires a pressure of more than 0.5 bar. Of course, the more powerful the device, the more pressure it requires. This factor must be taken into account before purchasing a mechanism. Otherwise, the equipment simply will not function normally. And repairing gas heat guns is not a cheap pleasure.

Types of gas heat guns

Today there are two types of gas guns - indirect and direct heating. They run on the same fuel, but also have various conditions and operating principle. The differences lie in the method of heating the incoming air flows.

To increase the level of operational safety, many modern indirect or direct heating gun heaters provide housing protection from overheating and flame control. It is not recommended to save on such equipment. After all, overheating of the case or an extinguished flame can lead to a real disaster.

As you can see, the heating systems discussed are deservedly so popular today. After all, this is one of the few ways to maintain warm temperature in large rooms.

A gas heat gun is a highly efficient heating device that runs on natural gas. They are usually used as construction equipment. You can also buy a gas heating gun for temporary or permanent replacement of the heating system.

Features of the device and use

With the help of such a device you can heat any room - from a balcony to a large production workshop. They heat greenhouses, warehouses, production facilities, workshops, even residential premises.

This device looks like metal cylinder. Inside it is a combustion chamber designed to burn fuel. Natural gas is used as fuel. Today, manufacturers offer several varieties of such devices. They can use mains or bottled gas.

Types and benefits

You can purchase a natural gas heat gun with direct or indirect heating. Some of them use a cylinder to supply gas. Devices are also produced into which fuel is supplied from centralized network. Direct heating devices are not suitable for residential premises. With their help you can heat a garage or warehouse. In residential premises, indirect heating guns are used, which do not pollute the air.

Fuel for such products is inexpensive, unlike electric models. Other advantages include quick heating of the room, high efficiency, mobility, lack of sensitivity to temperature changes, and affordable price of gas guns.
