smallest *working* gun on spudfiles: pico-ax

Miniature guns are novelty custom, unique, and sometime downright crude! Common construction materials often include pill bottles or pens. Show us your work!

He posted a link to an ebay auction for small "jewelerry" beads. If you wanted a much more accurate solution something like this would probably work better.

ouch :D :D :D :oops:

Anyway this cannon is epic, I need to make some up for school...

I suppose I should challenge you to build a pump that could pass for a pen :D.

I'm surprised the members here aren't screaming for "damage pics" :wink:

Aha, ok, thanks!

It's only a matter of time before this turns into a thread about fallaces. JSR, if I recall, started that in my micro over-under combustion thread. :lol:

JSR... may i buy one from you?
Have you got a shock pump? If so, PM me your address and it's yours ;)
Question: Where do you get 1mm bbs?
As above, very cheaply from ebay

I got my 3mm bearings from them, though for 1mm I don't think it's worth bothering with "accurate solutions" ;)

What am I now, the challenge bitçh? :D

Maybe because pin-pricks in pieces of paper or tiny dents in beer cans aren't really that impressive ;)

JSR knew the phallic inferences were almost inevitable, I guess he's getting his just rewards :roll: :D

Hmm. What you need to do is make half a dozen of these, then a tiny little double barrelled shotgun to load them into - complete with a trigger so frakking small you have to "pull" it with tweezers.

... And voilà, the smallest cartridge fed gun on Spudfiles.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

Not in the form suggested though, the beauty of a shotgun is that your target has to stare down a 0.75" bore ;)

I might be tempted to make a cartridge along these lines that will fit into a small pocket pistol type package like a Baby Glock, I wouldn't expect it to blow back but it could be manually recocked in the same way as the Brocock Para.

Power would be a lot more reasonable than the subject of this thread, but I could use the same trick of using the schrader body as the piston body.

Wow it took me till now to realize that the whole gun was just a schrader valve. Maybe you can use this as a mini injector for the worlds smallest rail gun! On the other hand if this is an auction of pico-ax's then mark me down for one i want one so i can use it in my civil war project as a working cannon!
Yeah, it's that important.

I might make a limited run for distribution but definitely not for now, too much on my plate at the moment.

JSR, I am aware that the(can you call it a gun) has been named, but what about calling it the alpha gun.
Also, very nice work.

(I know the thread is somewhat elderly, but it's the most recent thread anyway).

I prefer to say "launcher", less threatening :)

Ok, The alpha launcher. Actually, that's far more apt a name considering my reference to the particle of the same name which is stopped by a few centimetres of air or a sheet of paper.
Forgive my obscure joke.
