<div align="center">Flynt 5000

Provided by Flynt

Removable rifled barrel. 4" double "Y" Chamber. Heavy Duty Video Camera Tripod w/quick release.

Gun is balanced so that it will sit on tripod without tipping over.

Easily launches spuds 4-500 yds. Has a fairly good recoil. Put a spud through a half inch of
plywood at 150' using Shure deodorant. Will soon upgrade to Propane.

Just felt like posting rule 24# after reading your post.
24) Threads may be kicked up, as long as the post doing the "kicking" is relevant. There is no need to say "ooo this thread is 2+ months old!". If a thread is kicked up by a post such as "cool!", then the reply may be deleted. Kicking up topics is the effect of telling people to search.
Rule #24 wrote:ooo this thread is 2+ months old!
Should be more like "ooo this thread is 8+ months old!".

Dont freak out or call me something stupid. Just dont do it again. Dont post "Sorry" either just learn from this.

How did you make the handles, I was thinking of a simular model to mount on my go-cart.

And could you have the ignition source on the handle? Just wonderin. :D

the handle is a tee fitting cut at the bottom and strapped to the chamber with hose clamps then you can use elbows and caps to complete the hamdle part
