well i'd say a big piston gun if the pieces weren't so short.

but since they are- maybe a mini golf ball style gun similar to this? - http://advancedspuds.com/zooka.htm

My suggestion:
Use some 4", 2" and 1,5" to make a handheld piston-valved potato entertainment device.
Use interchangable barrels.
The 50cm piece of 4"should be used as silencer.
Till the day I'm dieing, I'll keep them spuddies flying, 'cause I can!

but the pipe is only rated to 9 bar dont forget so its not going to be that safe in my books for anything over 80psi..

i can get some more pipe for free so i might do that, im just about to go buy my FIRST DWV fittings to make the silencer :D

Something thats rated for 110 psi is safe to use up to 110 psi for me.
There is already a safety margin built in.
110 rated means that it has been tested for a working pressure of way higher.
