my .22 casing and oter small things launcher

[marpat]

so i picked up 2 blowguns for 50 cents a piece at a garage sale
and was tinkering with them the other day when i found a small piece of metal pipe that was threaded on one end from a lawnmowers intake manifold
i tryed it and the threads fit perfectly

the gun



so i was digging around for ammo in my room and i found a box of a 100 spent .22 long rifle casings turns out they fit quite nicely

they pierce the sides and bottom of pop cans quite nicely










then when i was getting bored i found a deck screw and cut its head off with an angle grinder




more to come soon

Nice little toy, but, FYI, the threads on most blowgun valves are 1/8" NPT. The pipe nipples can be found at most hardware stores.

You should put a stopper of some sort to hold the rounds back and give MORE POWER...aarrrrggg!!!

so now the rest
shooting just the deck screw had too much blowby so decided to sabot it in one of the 22 cases



and now some penatration with the screw
lol that sounds dirty




i cant wait till i get my shock pump and am able to really shoot since all these were fired at 120 psi

Burst disc to counter the flow restriction of the blowgun, maybe? Burst discs tend to be very effective at boosting power in small caliber cannons.

And if you're lucky, the screw MAY put very shallow rifling on the barrel when you fire it!



EDIT took too long, lol

pretty good job there, i always love it when something that was just thrown together works so well

[marpat]

so i was bored today some so i hooked it up to my bike pump using a schrader valve and i was able to bring the gun up to 160 psi and the deck screw sabot was able to pierce the side of a hairspray can
