I just ordered another qev and i am going to build a 1/2'' shotgun I plan on using a 1/2 in piece of copper for the barrel. Can anyone recommend some good ammo? I want to order on ebay or from somewhere in the us.

make paper shells full of lead shot with cotton balls at both ends

Marbles and aa batteries.

anything that fits is ammo!

Helpful as ever again!! :spam2: :banghead: :spam2:

Jsefcik is right though. Anything that fits is ammo as long as it's an inanimate object. I filled pieces of PVC pipe with sand and taped the ends shut and shot those. They "exploded" on impact sending sand everywhere. It's a pretty cool effect. Creativity is key here.

I'd recommend either find a consistent pre-made ammunition (Paintballs, ball-bearings, darts, etc...) or make a bunch of easily reproducible sabots and go with the common convention, anything that fits

attach a bottle to the end of the barrel, pretend it's a rifle grenade, I oftem use homemade darts in calibers around 1/2"

Mattys right shove some span down into the barrel

I like to stuff a paper towel in the barrel, then I dump in some ashes from our fire pit or our grill, then finally seal it off with another paper towel. It replicates an old fashioned black-powder cannon quite nicely.

P.S. It will fill most of my backyard with "smoke" so eye protection is required.

or cat litter, does damage!
