ok, i was thinking about real bullets and trying to figure out a way to contain the energy needed for each shot in the round (like a real bullet w/gunpowder) then i thought of a 12 gram CO2 cartridge, then thought too much for one shot, so i came up with this:
it's partially based on someones pen gun (can't remember who, i think it was JSR) the schreader is the fill and exhaust, and the projectile goes in the shell, when it's in the gun (that hasn't been made yet), pin on gun opens schreader-> projectile moves not as far as expected. yeah, it's low volume, but high pressure, and i can shoot anything that isn't toooo heavy, like a bb or something
then i can base a gun around the shell and all it has to do is open the valve

that sound like it might work although not a very big range, and how many cartriges would you have?

one question why would you put fins on a bb?

I think it would work, but the range would be better if you had a pipe the same diameter as the barrell stationary on the actual gun (firing Thingy) and then had the cartridges revolving (Like the Eclispe By Solar).

Well, yeah, I know it's old hat in the airgun world, but has anyone actually succeeded in making a spudgun that uses a cartridge yet?

As far as prelaoded cartridges goes, the was my combustion cartridge prototype, not a completed project but close enough

god damn it, i thought i finally came up with something (partially) original, thanks for ruining my hopes and dreams guys, maybe you'll see me lying in a ditch somewhere waiting for a good idea with an empty bottle of jim beam in my hand
edit: DAMN!! 8 pages on it too, i never even saw that, *sigh*
