hey i built this cannon like a few months ago, and it has brought some good times to me and my friends. We did have it so the trigger was built into the handle but an unfortunate accident made us change that. but never the less it still pops a clementine, yes i said clementine, about 423 metres. we originally used hairspray, but found it was too messy so we switched to AXE deodarant, and now we use pure butane gas. the kick of it is enormous and the sound even more terrifying. hope ya like :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
