Cool, but I question the "range" and safety practices.

I give him credit for building it and that it works.  However, he does need to learn some basic safety!  Once he learns to be safe, have fun dude!
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

If you have to ask why, you wouldn't understand.  ;)

Anything will be made smaller or bigger, it's just our nature, the safety was horrible, but the accuracy was impressive, needs a bunch of plastic civil war army soldiers and a nice green field to make a mini skirmish. Maybe some mini percussion or flint rifles.

Like that puzzle of the "Golden Gun", this mini-cannon combines fine metal crafting, which is generally appreciated by practical folks,  with a firearm, which we all here love.

They are both the kind of "Knick Knacks" I'd have on my coffee table or shelf instead of a plate commemorating the Lindbergh's  Flight.  I only buy dishes in sets of at least four and they have to be dishwasher safe.



Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

I want one   ;D ;D
Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

ice cube and a wrist rocket.  Works gerat for deer too.   No vizable damage to the animal, almost no noise, and no projectiles after a it melts.

I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.
