This is my first post here and also my first gun. It is not a real spud gun, its a smaller caliber. It was a nice project to gain some experience with spudgunning and soon ill be going on to the real work.
About the gun:
It is a 1,5L coke bottle attached to a PVC pipe (13mm diameter, 49cm long)
I made a hole in the cap and fitted the pipe thru it
The ammo were small glass marbles with a few layers of duct tape around em.
Inside was a spark strip made by a small plastic tube from a pen with 10 bugs on it, each about 1mm from eachother. The first and last bugs were connected to a piezo sparker. This resulted in a nice 9-spark ignition.
Shooting sequence:
-The cap+pipe is unscrewed from the bottle.
-Put duct tape around ball until it could not fit into pipe
-Bash the taped ball into the pipe (from the backside, where the cap is)
-spray hairspray in
-quickly screw cap on
-aim (or don't)
-FIRE!
The results were nice!
I shot it around in my backyard a few times. The damage done:
-Left an imprint in my wooden fence.
-Left a very small imprint in the metal pole of a street light
-I shot through the plexiglass window of my barn.


The gun is broken now, when one of the screws for the spark contact started leaking a real lot of heated air was squeezed through and in a few shots it all melted away. My next project will be a real combustion spudgun.
Well that was it, I just wanted to show this to you guys!
Thanks for watching and leave a reply if you want.
