SpudFiles

i have found that a gas that is used to power airsoft guns works quite well for launching spuds...its simply called green gas and you can find it at a piant ball or airsoft shop for around 15$

i belive it works better than anything else i have found, and i thought i should let every one know about it

Sorry to steal your thunder, but green gas is basically just propane - and we've been using propane to fuel cannons for years and years now.

Yep- ragnarok is correct. "green gas" is simply a term for canned propane that was used in slightly older pellet and bb guns, and sometimes in pneumatic air soft weapons rather than CO2, HPA, freon's etc..

thanks...it kinda smelled like propane

Yep- gasses such as propane, butane etc have an unpleasant and irregular scent added to them to alert people to possible leakages. While it may stink, it's a good method of checking if there are leaks or rich mixtures.

The technical term is "odorfactant". From the Latin meaning "smells like someone had burritos for lunch".

yea it is propane... however ridiculously expensive propane.
