oh shIt....say it isn't so..................I remember those cap "grenades" very well. I was hanging with a friend's family, while Mom was running errands. I was about 9.. we went to the mall & that was the 1st and last thing i ever tried to shoplift. I got busted & the family got embarrased really bad. I was so scared that I pissed my pants when I got busted and never stole anything again!!!!
 

take a chunk of pvc pipe attach to a bell type clean out attachement (screw type end) -- fix up a clicker type BBq gas grill starter into the bell housing ) === chamfer the pipe end so it will trim a tater shoved down it to size ( stuff tater in the pipe with broom handle stopping just short of the bell housing joining --unscrew bell housing back -- spray for a few seconds with hairspray into empty bell housing----replace the screw back -- aim carefully in a safe direction with a good back stop press "clicker" ---boom tater rpg -- powerful be careful with it --note use at your own risk !!!
 

Great Ivan! Kinit knock the wind out of pesky squirrels at a hunnert yards? ............NGE
 

it will kill em at 100 yards -- no sweat -- think of a bozooka that shoots taters a long way

using a smaller dia pvc tube why not ? use duty duty pvc though
 

I remember playing with these cap flyers. Turn the head counter clockwise, insert a flat red cap, or two or three (lol), and twist the top snuggly down clockwise, but not too hard or it went off in your fingers. Toss it up and as soon as it hits the ground.........POP!
