Single-shot paintball gun made out of plastic bottle and camping lighter

I did the styrofoam cup launcher too. I think it held 18 balls and was pretty underwhelming. Looked scary though.

Thats pretty funny. I had a spud gun that I made back in the early 90s, then I converted to shoot a syrofoam cup of paintballs... no field would let me use it. But it otherwise worked kinda like this. I used a gas-grill piezo trigger.

Around 15 years ago I traded it to Noxx for one of his loudeners.

Remember Noxx?

I think the difficult part would be consistently loading the same amount of hair spray…

Or hot knife hackery

It's not a YouTube DIY video without the hot glue gun.

I want to bring this to a field some time and one-ball people. I'm sure there's an optimal bottle size that chronoes clean reliably.

I was kinda hoping it would explode in a fireball of burning plastic. Oh well.

its like a tippmann C3 and an Airstar Nova had a baby!

DON’T TRY THIS AT HOME

its not that bad... at least the barrel bore was not too tight. But I did not see any RVA...

overall it look like a C3 to me

[JeeperCreeper]

But this is exactly the type of thing I would like to try at home

DON’T TRY THIS AT HOME
