This is my new mini, that works with a big spark,
It took me like a half-hour to make it, and i was really bored.
and everyone can make it, it's fun to use it because it
shoots nails very fast!
Details:
Chamber: a very small spray bottle.
Barrel: pen tube.
Ignition: Piezo sparker.
Ammo: nails.
(Damage pics soon
)

25-30 Feet!?!?! Come on man, tweak it a bit, you can do better than that. Generally I'm not happy with a design if I can throw the projectile further than I can launch it.

Nice little pill bottle gun. If you had a barrel about three times longer it would increase distance and accuracy quite a bit.
