are you really going to shoot hard plastic containers filled with paint at people? homemade pb guns are dangerous enough when shooting regular paint, but.... this could cause hard plastic shrapnel
in the upcoming presidential election, there will be several candidates who will be running, one of whom is Hillary Clinton. Now WAIT A SECOND!!! I though there was some sort of rule that prevented someone from serving more than two terms in office. Vote Against Hillary: Presidential Elections 08

Eggs,when the shells are pierced, they crack.Anyways, eggs are too fragile..they're mosre likely to break in the barrell.What If I froze paint in the shape of paintballs then coated them with gelatin mixture plus flour?
