hello i just wanted to showoff my little cannon. this is my first serious project

http://www.lysteknikk.net/hengerkanon40.JPG

This cannon have a 4" barrel and a 2,5" ballvalve. i operate it on 50-80 psi. my shooting record is 261 yards whit a coca cola bottle filled whit water. (1,5 litres. 1.5 kg projectile)

But now i want to make a "bazooka" that runs on compressed air (100 psi) and have a 2,5" barrel. (and yes i should be able to carry it when its finished)

This is acctually a fully metal cannon.

The reason why its covered whit mud/paint is that i just brought it back from work. yes the cannon finance it self. it was coustom build to launch paintballs on a big scenario game. it can shoot 1000 paintballs in one big boom.

I described the range and operate psi in first post, but i can tell again.

opperate on 50-80 psi. my shooting record is 261 yards whit a coca cola bottle filled whit water. (1,5 litres. 1.5 kg projectile)

If you guys liked this.... i just say... stay tuned for my next projekt.

i have never had so much fun :)

Here is another picture... (sorry abaut those kids in the picture but they just wanted to get a picture of them opperate it:P)

I'd say its a motar more than a cannon. Looks very nifty, and a little dirty, try washing it and re-painting it.
