Pneumatic: much greater range than a combustion, quieter, but less portable.

Combustion: portable, lower range than a pneumatic, and less loud.

my pneumatic cannon with 6" of linear porting on the barrel just gives a low
'whoosh' when fired.

Pneumatics all the way for me i like technical side of it and alot of people around here have no idea what a pneumatic cannon is so they go wow when they see it.But i do love that combustion boom and portability.
