It&#8217;s &#8220;IDEAL FOR SPRAYING: Fly repellents, Coat Dressings, Veterinary Products, Insecticides, Shampoos, Leather Conditioners, Disinfectants, and Deodorizers, <i>Plus 101 Other Uses Around the Stable</i>.&#8221; As you know, there&#8217;s a lot of demand for an all-in-one device that can handle these types of situations in suburban NJ.</p><p>The &#8220;CONVENIENT ONE-HAND OPERATION&#8221; of this &#8220;handy pistol-grip-sprayer always leaves you with one hand free.  You can hold the horse and spray him at the same time.  New silent-sprayer action allows you to spray the horse safely&#8230;&#8221; Would a sprayer that makes noise be unsafe?  Wouldn&#8217;t the horse feel it anyway with your free hand holding him?</p><p>According to my dad, this sprayer could possibly pre-date my birth.  It&#8217;s probably from back in the day when my parents lived in a stable..  Close up of the <a
