Hey fellas, just wondering if it would be possible or if u know of any1 who instead of making a cannon from pvc or abs made one fom fibreglass or even carbon fibre? a carbon fibre cannon would look sick.

I don't know of any, and here's why:
Exotic_stuff_$ > PVC_$
They are tough materials to work with.
No gain in preformance, it's just lighter. (which is going to make the recoil worse)

Man why bother with all the hassel PVC is reliable and can look cool, unless your a millionaire and going to commission one id stick with PVC

Ok, here is why you dont make a connon from Carbon Fibre

1. some of it isent fire proof

2. to make 1 from it would cost about 600 bukz

I know this post is old but there is another reason NOT to make a cannon from carbon fibre, when it breaks it breaks and the super sharp pieces would go flying everywhere, they would be extremely dangerous, i know this because i use carbon fibre hunting arrows and on one shot the arrow must have had a fault in it, it hit my taget and burst into a bunch of different shards. I was around 20 ft away and one piece managed to find its way into my leg, just imagine what would happen if something larger were to explode next to you
