Are you looking for single shot or multi shot?
What sort of velocity are you after?
What size is acceptable?
What's your budget?
Do you want to power it with a fuel/air mixture (combustion) or compressed gas (pneumatic)?
Do you need it to be quiet?
Come up with a detailed specification and you'll find a lot of help. In the meantime, read though the

A sprinkler valve pneumatic then, it will give you the performance you want at 100 psi, not the most basic of designs but complex enough to give you a challenge with a reasonable chance of success, especially if its your first build. Also the parts you need are relatively cheap and readily available.

Many of your questions have probably already been answered elsewhere, I suggest you take a good look around the forum and wiki first.
