Default OT - possible darwin award coming - RCMers will enjoy

I gotta send you guys some pictures of my CO2 powered "anti tank gun"

I make my own projectiles from molded foam.


BTW, did I mention I'm into paintball?



Oh, here, I found some old pictures from when I was working on it. The
project wasn't completed yet, but it will give you the idea.

Only because the ABS pipe may explode - otherwise - pretty cool!

Pretty cool, indeed!

I'm not convinced he has to worry about a failure of the pipe, not the way
he's going about his fun ------especially when he's already experienced a
failure---confirming what I've been lead to believe about ABS. It doesn't
fail the same way PVC does-------which is why ABS is acceptable for
airlines. You maybe have heard of the green stuff sold for the purpose?
