Well you could build a wood one with a plexiglass inlay where the lens goes.

You could even put air springs surrounding it with the rest of the area filled with great stuff. In case you [s]drop it[/s] shoot at it.

What's the legal status there about this? In the US, its illegal to put dryice in a airtight space.
Not that that doesn't stop people =)
Cool vid, han't seen a slow motion one before.

Well i've never heard of any laws against it. Some guy put some in some trash cans last year and got caught, but that was indangering the public etc.
If I get caught, somehow, i'll just explain that i'm using the dry ice to test the suitability of a soda bottle for being used on an air rifle. You only have to be 18 for air rifles to be legal and since this uses a compressed gas to make the bottle explode, I probably can get away with it.
Because technically the law could just see it as a 'pressure chamber' that exploded.

Don't know about other countries, but yes in the states any and all of this is very illegal and you will wind up under arrest if caught. Rule 3 B2 covers this word for word.
