These guys built a NERF bazooka/rocket launcher and it is positivalutely SCARY and awesome to behold. 2.5" barrel, pneumatic system powered by a 9-volt battery. The "NERF darts" are pool noodles with PVC fittings, put together and look exactly like ginormous official NERF ammo. 3D printed cosmetics including flip-up sights, safety switch and button to fire. Finally it's painted with the same scheme as real NERF toys.
Here's the video of it on YouTube.
That’s a neat trick. Bookmarked. Thanks!
The kind of fun stuff most kids these days miss out on...blowing stuff up and making your own instruments of destruction.
Pretty cool. I’ve made potato cannons before. They can launch frogs a long way.
Almost as cool as a potato cannon and 100 times wimpier LOL
Yeah but look at it this way, Chuck Schumer will be along shortly demanding that Congress ban it and that’ll make it easier to confirm Kavanaugh.
:)
Frogs!?!

Run, Kermit,RUN!
Cow pies too (a little messy but think of the effect on the other end). Horse also works well.
I knew some guys who took a hollow driveshaft from a truck and cut the end off, and the interior diameter was enough to accommodate a 12 oz plastic soda bottle.
They would act like a two man mortar team, one guy would put dry ice chips into the bottle, put in some water, screw the cap on, and toss it into the bore, and the other guy would put various items in on top of it from a tennis ball, or another bottle completely filled with water.
It would shoot the thing hundreds of yards!
One of my own favorites was to take three tennis ball cans, remove both ends, tape them together with duct tape, then make a small touch hole with an ice pick. You could squirt in a little Ronson lighter fluid (though not enough for your dad to miss when filling his Zippo!) toss in a tennis ball, then light the touch hole...:)
So , Basically , Posting this so as to TROLL for You Tube views,
you seem to believe this has something or anything a all
to do with promotion of Conservative Politics in the USA ?
What kind of charge was used? A shotgun shell?
Mighty powerful to the point of being dangerous.
I like it!
Haha!
I had a NERF football and basketball as a kid. The little one with the hoop. Oh and a NERF Boomerang. I loved it. Haha!
Thanks for the flashback!
I wonder what the range of it is.
NERF Air Launcher from 1976. The rockets that came with it was the very first NERF ammo.
We don't have to insist that everything be political. Let the other side do that. Let them obsess on politics. There is a lot more to life than that.
If we can't enjoy the little things in life, then all we are fighting for is as nothing.
My 10-year old twins have been scheming to build something like this. Also a rail gun, but that won’t have much umph with the power he has available.
Oh no, they killed a watermelon. Not quite as spectacular as my kids and I executing one with 5.56mm but equally terminating.
I do wonder whose house that is? Rather messy.
Gotta be quite a distance.
