Air pressure cannon that shoots shotgun ammo

Usually UK standards are the same for Australia. So what jackssmirkingrevenge said was that you cant have more than 12ft/lb or something. (wtf is 12ft/lb)

As far as I know any airgun in Australia needs to have a police license, while in the UK the law is different - any airgun having a muzzle energy of less than 12 ft/lbs (for example 0.177 calibre firing an 8 grain pellet at around 800 feet per second, or 0.22 calibre firing a 16 grain pellet at around 550 feet per second) can be owned by anyone over 18 without a license. Anything capable of going over this energy limit however is considered legally to be a firearm and is subject to similar licensing restrictions to powder burners.

Lol. If they come round i will be like yer i only pump it up to 50psi. How far do you think that it would shoot? would it be powerful?

With a long enough barrel and big enough chamber, 50 psi will put a marble through half an inch of ply easily.

Far out .. i thought 50 was like piss week lol. the chamber i am planning to use will be made out of about a 2 inch round PVC pipe. and the barrel will be about...... 19 inch what do you think about that?

Thanks guys for helping me. But one more thing, what is the right pipe to use for the barrel of my marble shooter?
