I like the related video about painting real guns to look like toys. They have teachers and cops crying about it. The guying doing it says that 75% of the guns sent to him to paint are from cops. LOL

Do want!

To be maximally effective he should have put a wee bit of cotton loosely tamped down against the powder before inserting the BB.

Cool, but kind of stupid doing that right next to your computer, especially shooting glass objects.

When I was a kid, I remember my dad bought me this little metalcannon from the fireworks stand. I want to say it was in the '70's. It had a little reservoir for, I think, water and you put some gray powder in it, and you set it off using a flint and plunger assembly on the back cover.

Had lots of fun with it through the years experimenting with various other reagents. Oh the memories...

That is a bangsite cannon you're talking about.
