Spring Powered BB Gun (homemade :) ) (with Pics+Vid)

[Thursto]

Hey, i've read on a forum, or on a post that somebody made that Mr.Russ, my friend mentioned we have these little spring powered BB guns that we purchased from cheap as cheaps in australia for $5 AUD. And i would now like to show you what they are and what they can do, so here some pics and video.

Also i would like to give credit to Mr.Russ, as he created them and taught me how to make them, and he is also giving me alot of help on my cannons, and giving me alot of ideas, and suggestions.

And constructive criticism and suggestions are welcome, thanks in advance.

do they hurt?
is it just one of those sticky dart guns

[Thursto]

Hey yeah, they can hurt depending on how far away the target is, yeah it is bassicly just that, a spring powered suction cup dart gun. they are fairly accurate and they can go from one side of my friends house to the other in a second or less, but it does change coarse slightly due to wind etc.

its a good idea tho

[Thursto]

Nah, only threw paper, but they hurt from close up, other wise, it just feels like someone flicked you, but you can feel it. the damge vid is on my vid, which im currently trying to upload onyou-tube, butit's not workind, when it gets near the end, it wont finish.
