It's a ball valve pneumatic and it got it's name because i accedently shot the head light of my mom's car.. :oops:

So yeah!

It's made out of polished steel.. and... that's about all that's worthy noting.. apart from that the barrel is 2 metres long..

Nice and shiny-looking. What's the barrel ID?

And is that guitar a Schecter?

Try to change that with a piston or qev or a sprinkler. You will be able to go past the metal in the headlight and maybe hit the frame :)

The very fact is that I shot the headlight at an angle.. it went through the glass on both sides and then embedded itself into a tree.. haha..


The ID of the barrel is 15 mm.

And no pics of the headlight.... as all the remaining glass was laying on the ground.. I had to clean it up and stuff.

And that guitar is a... squier! Go second rank japan fender!

Nice. I figured maybe it was an old car that was just sitting there or soemthing. Normally when firing my cannon, I point it completely the opposite direction from my truck.

EDIT: OK, I missed the whole "mom's car" part. My bad.

If you're a guy, that just lost you like 10 man points.

Well that I don't know, but if you make statements like that often, you could be getting close to a negative balance.
