| I was wondering if anyone had ever made a grenade type launcher and had plans they would share? I'm looking to build something that can launch 20-30 paintballs in one single shot. Ideas? thanks |

| Most of these can be made for $25-30 and some knowledge of PVC pipes. Be careful though, shrapnel sucks. |

toss a bit of blackpowder in a pipe, drop in a bunch of paint, and when everyone dives for cover, shoot them up (with your regular gun), cause no ones stupid enough to shoot at the pyscho with the boom tube

Most fields will not allow incendiary charges to be used to propel paintballs. Has to be pneumatic. P.S.- You're making a lot of enemies, Klaus... ------------- War Machine Paintball Standing up for newbies everywhere! We were all newbies once. |

i wrote that post as a sarcastic/satirical reference to my earlier
sugestions of using blackpowder in its intened form, convening projectiles, but everyone seems eager to assume, and likely rightfully so, that im a nutjob with no common sense...read the post, did i ever suggest firing the damn cannon at someone? NO! oh well, still, i was wrong i guess, it was a waste of post space for an effective idea, try duct taping a tennis ball can to a fresh sapling, preferably ash, toss a few dozen balls in, pull back, and let go, with a bit of practice, you'll get pretty acurate, and theres no blackpowder involved so everyone should be happy ps, dont knock this idea till you try it, it works pretty good, but i guess it isnt really "professional" looking |

^^ The point is, you're giving extremely immature pre-teens extensive
information on how to make potentially dangerous cannon type devices. |

im sorry you dont have the brains to make a simple device, but dont blame me cause you shoulda know better than to test it in your hand in the first place, ive shot it a few dozen times with a fuse (fighting poor sarcasm/cyncism with common sense, wonder if it will work) ive got worse burns (frostbite is a burn) from my A-5 than i have from that derriger, so dont give me crap about the dangers of my idea read the cannon idea a little closer, did i ever freakin mention shooting it at someone? NO!...oh well, i cant be too mad, its not like i should expect you to be able to read that well anyways... |
