Me and my friend recently made our first potato gun and were looking to mount it similar to a rocket launcher. I was wondering if anyone had done this and had a recomendation on how to make a shoulder harness type thing for one.

make a semi sircle out of foam to mout on your shoulder
but holding the gun next to your face is not smart no matter how rated your pipe is.

If the jeep has no canvas and and just an open frame, get 2 pieces of 2 by 4, and 2 u-bolts that can fit over the frame on top. now, look at the jeep from the back, you will want to put the 2 by fours acrossed the top of the frame, and have holes drilled respectivly for how you would like to have it set, the ubolts will hold the 2 by 4's secure to the frame. now, you should be able to use some large hose clamps to secure the gun to the wood frame. enjoy

take a 4" pvc coupling or piece of pipe, cut it in half the long way and theres your mount, just glue it with epoxy to your cannon.
