Tominator Posted May 17, 2006 Report Share Posted May 17, 2006 Re: Mortar... My buddy made a standard spud gun out of some 4" PVC with butane as the propellant. I never saw it shot, but he said it really goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckee Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Re: Mortar... Sounds quite dangerous to me. If you read down to the questions and answers on that page, you'll see that the guy who made it was afraid even to weld a base on it, for fear of the tube not being stable afterward. Don't try this at home !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puffy Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Re: Mortar... Would have been cool to see! You would never get away with a contraption like that up here. It would be classified as a cannon and you must be trained and qualified to fire such a weapon. Spud guns yes.... cannons, not a chance!
