Hi. I am new to Spud files and this is my first post. This is a mini Spud and nerf gun that I just made. It is a 1 inch chamber and a half inch barrel with a 1 1/4 in cleanout plug. The propellants I use for it are hairspray and butane. The igniter is a typical pziolectric (I don't think I spelt that right :lol: ) barbecue igniter. So far it has been shooting well. I will post more updates and maybe show some of my other homemade projectile weapons.

The gun, one type of the projectiles, and the propellant ( sorry about the bad quality)

Nice work for a first project, consider metering your fuel with a syringe to extract the most performance:
