Aircraft are not toys! They can be dangerous and should be treated as such.
While it looks fun, and it is, you need to act responsibly while
operating an aircraft of any type.
"Saftey First" - that's what comes to mind.

So I was thinking - how hard could it be to put a paintball gun on an
utralight?? The fun we could have with that!
Not so hard, I decided, after I dusted off my old sniper semi-auto rifle
downstairs.

Not really - it think the film would be frowned on by the powers that be.
Even my wife ask "How could you do that to a buzzard?"
Actually it's easy - you just have to lead them a little more than
a goose.

Yeah, I put one on my FS II about 5 years ago, just about like you did. Worked fair out to maybe 20 yards, but the ball slowed down real fast after that [even with the pressure cranked up all the way].

Be careful on your strafing runs..............

always thinking, eh?

I had one of those India taxi squeeze bulb horns on my old plane.
Hmmmm, whar'd I put that thing?

Better yet a compressed air truck horn.
