Difference between air/water cannon

I've noticed in general... Perhaps i'm wrong... That laws in regards to air cannon's and "projectile" weapons, seem to come under most countries "fire arm's" Act's.. Yet.. "Water cannons" don't seem to be classified as a projectile weapon... Because they are not projecting a "solid" object.. (Althou...

Following JSR's post.. On Chamber volume..

Might be a stupid suggestion but...
Why not add two ball valves, making the two chamber's independent...
Two standard shot's, or open both valve's and get one big shot..
You should have enough volume, to get two good shots out of those chambers.

This is with your basic nail for small cal hunting... And my 320mm for skewering the bigger rodents... They tend to run away with smaller darts in them... Not with these babies... :twisted: This is what I have been using... Has been effective... Both these shots were from from 15m... Into 1/4 in Pin...

Ok... Got my new pump... :D Did some shot's at 160-170PSI.. AAAA's stay straight for atleast 20m without tip's.. No fluctuations in flight either... And are always hitting on the end fired first... no spinning.. The extra 20 PSI seems to have done the trick.. Go straight through 1/4 ply, up to 10m. ...

Well so far, they have shot very similar to shooting AAA or AA.. They seem to stay, dead straight for atleast 12m. With the tip's on I seem to easily, get grouping's of 5 shot's in a 150mm target from 30m.. 1. Front is heavier than the back.. Due to the stainless steel tip... Tip weights- 4g... 2. I...

Just double wrap them in plastic.... Then dispose in garbage... Preferably in the hard waste... (In Aus we have a pick up twice a year) If your really worried, wrap RED duct tape in a big cross around the package... Universally the sign for "not so good, open with care"... I'm not sure about world w...

You'd be surprised..
Most people when they go to a multi purpose "hardware store"
don't want to be annouyed by 16yr assistant's..
You don't need them to do everything, but at least they can lead you to an area...
