The Sandgun uses sand as ammo which is affected by gravity. When the sand projectile hits any object, it will turn into a clump that will gather on the ground making the ammo reusable. This makes the Sandgun a very messy weapon and can ruin a house if fired indoors too much. It is possible to hit yourself.
The Sandgun can also use Ebonsand Blocks and Pearlsand Blocks as ammo, on top of normal sand.
The Sandgun is very tedious to obtain, due to the fact that the Illegal Gun Parts cost 75
and Antlion Mandibles take a lot of time to get. Most online servers ban the Sandgun.

Even with the mess it can make, the Sandgun is perfect for creating walls and blocking off entrances if you are good at aiming and quick to think. Otherwise, your world will turn into a messy sand palace.

Tips
Edit
- With the effects of Necro Armor or the hardmode ranged sets (chance not to use ammo) combined with the sand gun, a player can theoretically generate an infinite amount of sand, Ebonsand Blocks and Pearlsand Blocks.
- Ebonsand and Pearlsand Blocks can go through the enemies while regular sand can't.
- Sandgun doesn't do any critical damage, which is a disadvantage to this gun.
Bugs
Edit
- When shooting at an area where an object is in the background but still using the space, the sand that drops from the projectile will disappear.
- Sometimes firing the Sandgun in multiplayer server will kick you with the phrase "Trying to place impossible blocks", possibly because of the aforementioned bug.
Trivia
Edit
The Sandgun's texture uses the Illegal Gun Parts' texture for most of the gun. The barrel and the handle use the Illegal Gun Parts' texture.
