[QUOTE=RidingKeys;33760994]heh, a replica javelin that launches giant paintballs(washable paint if there is such thing) would be kind of cool, or some alternative to paint.[/QUOTE] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-SmfybCbsY[/media]

[QUOTE=notrabies;33747985]Guys, way better idea, take timebomb's mortar and make an awesome shell for it. Rather than a tennis ball, some sort of model rocket, and when it starts descending, the nosecone flys off and bbs fall out. If you make the majority of the rocket consist of tough nerfesque foam, it wouldn't pose any more of a safety hazard than the nerf mortar rounds a lot of fields run.[/QUOTE] Thats actually a pretty clever idea, the trick is getting it to open on the way down as opposed to either at the apex of flight or immediately upon leaving the barrel. Also making it cheap since there is a pretty substantial chance you wont get the round back.

Well I put a bit more thought into it, and I realized rather than using a model rocket, you could just use the tried and true Nerf Vortex mini football. Just cut off the top and hollow it out. Make the nosecone have some extra nerf stuff on the bottom so it slides right into the rest of the ball kind of snugly, so it should only fall off at the top of the arc when its energy is at a minimum. Even if the top goes flying off right at launch, you'll still have a BB shower, just a less accurate and more chaotic one. Make like a dozen of these and you could have a super cool artillery salvo with realistic friendly fire casualties!

i want to have like 4 rpg-26s and just fire them all at once like that one afghan in that clip from 9rota

uhhh i don't remember this part at all

not all at once obviously but carrying many launchers and throwing them to the ground after firing [img]http://www.imfdb.org/w/images/thumb/5/58/9thCo_Mujahideen_RPG-18_2.jpg/800px-9thCo_Mujahideen_RPG-18_2.jpg[/img]

oh ok

[QUOTE=cardfan212;33807313][url]http://www.houndsofhellpaintball.com/articles1.html[/url] I'm going to make this over Christmas break.[/QUOTE] make the barrel longer and use a reducer/90 degree fitting instead of tapping directly into the barrel like they do also use black iron instead of galvanized parts [editline]20th December 2011[/editline] Also use some fucking thread tape since these guys are retarded and dont seem to use it.

Thanks for the advice.

Oh hey that's funny, I was going to make one of those eventually

Also if you make it in-line (IE: put the CO2 cartridge holder and associated pipe in line with the barrel as opposed to on top of it) you get a longer but significantly easier to aim launcher

I love you Timebomb, k?

Here's me wishing airsoft was popular and not brutally expensive in Brazil We got very VERY strict laws against anything that mildly resembles a gun, so any toy gun costs more than a real one as in, the same airsoft rifle that costs 100$ normally, costs about 500$ here...

Except a $100 gun in the US will cost $300 here.

If you're from Europe i suggest you buy from TaiwanGun.com From what i heard the service is good. Pricing wise everything is cheap and good.I personally wanna get a SRC G36KV

taiwangun gets massive respect because they basically commissioned cyma rpk(s) and a&k pkm

Hey Timebomb, what's the ETA on the guide for the mortar?

p sure his mortar is just a pneumatic air cannon i could be wrong but heres a tutorial [url]http://www.spudgundepot.com/pneumatic.html[/url] obviously you'll have to be creative if you want it to look like a mortar

didnt he say it was a rapid-fire deal instead of some hur dur potato gun

ah i read back and he did indeed say that but he says he's not using explosives so i'd still imagine that it uses air.

[QUOTE=Bomber9900;33941526]ah i read back and he did indeed say that but he says he's not using explosives so i'd still imagine that it uses air.[/QUOTE] It does indeed use air, but it's different than that potato gun

Now this idea might not be great, but hey... Would it work if you had rigged a pvc pipe to have a fixed firing pin on the bottom allowing you to drop an m203 shell in and when it hits the firing pin it would shoot?

You'd have to stick a rocket in after the 203 shell before it fired.

well unless you like having sprays of bbs coming out of your launcher

That wouldn't be effective at all

you could try those grenades with the foam rockets built in but i've heard theyre shit also how would you get the grenade out turn the mortar upside down???

Make the bottom unscrew.
