I went to a friends house and he introduced me to this hobbie, and all can say is i love it. For the little amount of money and time it takes to put that big of a smile on my face, it is so worth it i have more cannons but this is my first. It is 4 in reduced to a 3 in chamber 4 ft tall with interchageable barrels, I have an electric fan to equalize the chamber and a bbq ignighter taped on the side.I use power spray deoderant, and it is very good 4 seconds of spray and it is insane. I will shoot straight through 3/4/ inch plywood at 20 ft. and easily go 300 yds. look around here and i have more guns. Video coming tomorow

That's a pretty powerful gun, especially for a combustion.
