What if there is a spring powered grenade lancher and could be carried on ur back during a war made out of pvc pipe "plastic tubes used for houses" and had a spring with a back plate on it to push the grenade out and lanch it like 50 yards it would be kind of like a mortar          Think About It Email me  if u have any ideas at

To hurl a grenade 150 feet all on spring power, you would need one heck of a heavy duty spring. The rap4 that evil_fingers showed us has a range of 30 feet.

It would be like the British PIAT I believe.  It was a spring powered anti-tank gun.  It would be a good idea but damn hard to reload.  The PIAT had a spring in it with like 150 pounds of preesure or soemthing.  You had to be really strong to operate it.  This idea is crap.  It'd be way too hard to make and operate.
I wouldn't venture out there fellas. This sniper's got talent.

Yes, the PIAT was spring powered. It also weighed 32 lbs. And it technically had no barrel, the projectile was loaded similar to the rifle grenade of an M1 Garand. This would be bad for paintball, considering the projectile is lighter than a PIAT explosive round, making it more easily thrown off course by exterior forces like wind.

I heard about your idea>>>>>>>>>>Its great!

Although they have already done it, we could make a design for a new one.

I was thinking that we could make something like an RPG, only for paint.

Or we could design an attatchment that would go onto the gun like an M203 or something.........

Paint_master, you mean like an M203? I've seen them around, they cost like $200-$300 though.

This spring powerd thing is no good, it whould take way to much time to re-coil the spring to fire another round, I'd rather just make an air cannon, besides what whould this granade launcher throw, tippmann paint grandes, there not very reliable.

http://www.rustyspaintballgear.com/rs/catalog/bytype.asp?typ e=Launchers

The TP203 mounts to almost any gun. They got some other ones, if you like anti-tank stuff, check out some of the M72 models. All of these shoot a 52mm round that you can buy at that website or buy the plans and parts to make your own. From what I understand, they're more like shotgun shells.
