The smallest combustion I've built next to my pill bottle mini. The chamber is about 10 inches of 2in PVC, and the barrel is 12 inches of 1 1/4 in PVC. The propane tank that fuels it almost dwarfs the gun, but its POWAHFUL!!! Powerful enough to ricochet off of the fence post and hit me in the knee.

I thought I was going to see a pill bottle with a metering system on it...

Thats a shnazzy little cannon. How loud is it? (Not Decibels, but compared to something like a full-size combutsiotn)
