i have plans in my head to build a rpg, could load it with 2-3 field provided metior shower paint grenades. the way i figure they will let me fire the thing once

i wonder if they will just give the tanks lazertag guns =/

i have signed up as a possible tank commander, and i haven't seen any of the rules defining the limits yet.

JeffreMiller and I are bringing a tank , but there is not much weaponry on it ..

[thei3ug]

no weapons, eh?

just think of 2 pieces of pvc, one for an air chamber, and one for the barrel inside of it using a spool valve to switch the air going out of the barrel on/off (nova from hell ). setups like this have been known to launch a potato at 700 fps. now take a rocket housing 2-3 paintgrenades as a payload, in a styrofoam sabot, with electronics to ignite the rocket .5 seconds after it accelerates forward (is fired) and.....


just call it a hunch, but if they make everyone in the tank invulnerable, and say the only way to get em out is by a metor shower paint grenade they sell, they are lookin at makin a little bit of $$$

Bah... this sounds like its gonna be really cool... to bad I can't go, stupid parents...

Anti Tank Rounds

Hi
It seems after talking with others tanks will be allowed to shoot nerf rockets at each other besides paint. So why cant an anti tank unit do that also. I have my main gun converted to shoot rockets called Poof rockets. I am looking at 70 yards easy for a kill shot. I will bet 100 is extreme range but the accuracy will be something to see. Living in town my test range is limited. I lost one rocket today on the next block over. I only launched it at 40 psi too.

Perhaps something similiar to a potato cannon would do the trick? So long as it's not a full-power version, it shouldn't put holes in anything

I have a pnuematic potato gun I would be willing to sell. It has a 2" diameter barrel, and will chuck a nearly whole potato about 400 yards. Ouch.

Look in the friendly section for my HPA potato cannon.

Search My name, topic potato cannon.

It puts a semi ROTTEN potato through 3/4 inch particle board. The KE is so great eventhough the potato completely vaporizes on impact the impulse is so great that it shatters a clean hole though the impact area.

Operating pressure at 600 psi controlled by a spring loaded stainless steel ball valve. Rotton potatos put dents in steel doors at 50 yards. The thing is only 6 feet long

I have 2 cannons based off Butterfingers design. If someone lends me an inline reg that can get down to 200 PSI or so, then I might be able to bring it to Shatnerball.

I'd need something that will reliably keep CO2 at 200 PSI, though, I don't want to put a paint grenade THROUGH the tank.

Also, they are both rather large, so it would be more like a tripod-mounted portable launcher, and it would take 2 men to man.

I've got a sidewinder and a PMI bottomline reg. Both can run at 200psi. Unfortunately neither work on CO2. I do have two extra nitro tanks, but both need to get sent in to be fixed.

hmm nerf rockets ehy? i suggest buying some nerf rockets and drilling some of the foam out of em, anking it possible for em to slip over a barrel? then turn off your pf and firt with the air blast. and there goes the rocket. I bet you it would work.

If someone has an extra hpa tank, that would work too...
