I give you... THUNDER DOWN UNDER the golf ball piston cannon, it's specs are as follows
..........T.D.U..........
Range: Pending...
Operating Pressure: 100-130PSI
Barrel: 1.3m of 40mm Class 12
Chamber: 35cm of 80mm Class 18
Ammo: Golf balls
Valve: 50mm tee with 40mm porting
Pilot: 25mm modified sprinkler valve
Piston: PVC coupling
I googled 'thunder down under' to see if it was original, and It came up with this homosexual dance group called 'blue thunder down under' so I just want to stress that this gun has no affiliation with that particular group.
Heres the first of hopefully many videos, it's features me shooting a golf ball at a milk bottle full of water with explosive consequences, I stuck to 70PSI in the video so I wouldn't bounce it into a window

Ok I did it again with more milk bottles, with somewhat average results, I guess it proves how good water is at stopping projectiles, It blasted the lid off the 3rd one but didn't go through it.

I went out to some bush north of Perth today with Carlman and we shot a few different things including a TV,

Notice the sound difference when I plug it into Carls 1.2m Suppressor for shooting this full bottle.

This last video started too late and missed the action, but u get the idea...

and if anyone asks me if my bell reducer is pressure rated ill shoot them
This is the bumper
Paint job
