I feel the need to build a new spudgun. I've gotten rid of quite a couple of my old ones, including the Patriot Resurrection. Dissappointing since it was a great gun.

I need an idea for a new gun. NOthing too outlandish, since I need to devote time to school. But I am up for ideas. I'd appreciate it if you guys helped me out. I may still have the knowledge behind em, but just no creativity.

There have been a lot of guns lately that have been modeled after real world weapons, such as bazookas and mortars. You ought to do one of those! BTW, welcome back! :D

did you build combustions or pneumatics? just build the other kind now :lol: maybe try something different, at the moment there seems to be alot of replica spudguns based of rocked launchers etc. a while ago there were lots of copper piston cannons.... and there was a phase of BTB sawn-off guns.... Break the mould! (although there isn't really much variation in combustions)

(i was going to make a copper piston cannon... then i thought... why not make a coax just to be different! and then BlackH posted his copper coax before i have finished mine LOL)

I'm kinda feelin' that too, except I have like $10.
I'll probably just use my giant box of random PVC fittings along with some other cannibalized guns to make something new. Well, that's if I feel inclined to get off my lazy ass and do something...

I would suggest making something with my BDC design as those are cheap and easy to build.

Oh G.D. I thought I could get away from you at Spudfiles! I see enough of you on Theopia, so help yourself...







And a slightly more serious reply:

I would suggest an over-under combustion with a large 4-6" diameter chamber, with a 3" SCH-80 pop-bottle barrel. Of course, an Ozark Trails fan mounted with a switch rigged to it from the outside, either electronic or a small piezoelectronic ignition system, and breech loading.
