Anyone ever built or used a potato gun?

Havent ever built one but I have fired one years ago. Dam thing was so awesome. Saw my buddy post a clip of him shooting his. Kind of want to build one now.

Yes. Did it as a science project in the apprenticeship. We used different combustible gases to see which shot it farther. We got over 400'

is it a gun that fires potatoes, or a potato that fires bullets

We use aqua net as our propellant.

 

 

Also, when you make one. Rig it up with a push button igniter from a grill.

I use a potato AR-15 to hunt chives. Gotta be careful not to take out an eye, but the aftermath is delicious.

We had 2 of them and woukd try to down a deer at my buddies house. They would come out in the back yard in the evening. They arent super accurate but it was fun as hell. Probably tried 6-10evenings one summer. That was the only time ive shot one. Good times
