Miniature guns are novelty custom, unique, and sometime downright crude!  Common construction materials often include pill bottles or pens.  Show us your work!

			I've sure seen worse...
Upgrade the ignition. Having an open hole in the chamber seriously reduces performance. Besides that, pretty run-of-the-mill mini. Keep at it.
Peace,
Pete Zaria.

			It looks nice and harmless 

Wire a small piezo through the hole and put duct tape over it.
Then it will perform better i think

			That first picture confused me a lot. The first thing I noticed(after the gun) was the strange ghostly figure at the top. At first I though you might have taken the picture through a window, but then I noticed the gun's shadow wasn't lined up right.
Finally I saw everything appeared to be floating 3 inches above the surface, and only then realized it was on a glass table 
Nice first. Good work not getting hotglue/electrical tape everywhere.

			As Pete said, Ive seen a lot worse!
btw, fnord, that is a glass plated table with a TV reflection on it as far as I can see... am I right? (the shadow out of place: and this could be an eastern creation, where levitation of spudguns is quite common... 

 )
But nice work and keep it up!
