My butane powered mini spud gun. It is breech loaded and has a scope. I shot Airsoft bbs through a can from 5 meters.

:lol:

It has a big pill bottle as the chamber, and thumb tacks as the electrodes.

The sparker is from a long nosed fireplace lighter and the pistol grip and hand grip is made from balsa wood.

I put 3 Bic pens as the barrel and it has massive power and the Jones soda can holds the ammo.

Um...nice job. I personally don't like it, but it is a very interesting cannon. To each his own I suppose. Why is the entire cannon bending when you hold it though?

I am going to post damage pics on my website

its probably the stock thats folding or I glued the barrel to the chamber slightly downwards because it was shooting above the target every time
