1-2-3-4, I declare a Marshmallow war!

[Oyveychris]

Look at what I made! These are marshmallow shooters (designed for mini-marshmallows, and can shoot up to 25 feet! My 4 1/2 year old son and I chase each other around the hose with these and have an absolute blast. All parts are readily available at Home Depot/Lowe's/Ace Hardware etc. They are made from 1/2" white PVC, and do not need to be glued together. No batteries needed either! (that's the best part!). The shooter on the left is called the "Big Papa Double-Barrel Devastator" and the one on the right is called the "Little Mercenary Field Buddy".

OMG! We have those too!!! my cousin made them for all of us "kids" out in Colorado last summer for our family reunion. They are SUPER FUN! and don't hurt when you get shot! We made our own when we got home...i painted mine chrome! haha

we should have a huge get together and have a marshmallow gun war!

[Oyveychris]

That would rock! I would totally be able to catch you while you were hiding though, chrome sticks out! I wanna do mine in "Urban Camo"!

/me runs like a gazelle to the Home DePot.

I'm very very gazelle-like when I'm excited.

[Oyveychris]

Awesome! We could have an "Org wide" marshmallow fight!

[Maggadog]

I made these last year. Way too much fun for anyone to be allowed to have!
If you make them, do not glue them together. Some of the fun is redesiging your gun each time you use it, and it is easier to get the marshmallows out if they get stuck. You can also fill the "non-useable" tubes with plastic grocery bags to get a little bit more velocity and to keep the ammunition from getting stuck in the dead ends.

What do you mean, it is urban camo, it looks like you pulled it out of the wall

Those are awsome! I bet you could shoot dog treats out them too. The dog would love that

actually...our dogs ate the marshmallows that we couldn't pick up fast enough...they loved it!

If you go bigger diameter on the pvc, the launching posibities are endless: Cherry tomatoes, strawberries, grapes, cherries, gummy bears, etc!

That's funny! I didn't think of that!

[SilverVw3]

Very crafty That is awesome!

You should paint them! That would be sweet.

[Oyveychris]

Maybe all the Org members who make them could paint them to match their beetles! That'd be rad! That's right, I said rad!

cool so mine is almost a match...all i need now are some racing stripes on it...i think it's do-able.

[Oyveychris]

Of course if Billsbug or Jugg Bugg do theirs, they are gonna be super heavy with all the mods (chrome, video screens etc)!

[Growler]

so do you just blow into one end to shoot them?

and how do you load them? one shot at a time?

[from Margaritaville...]

But can you use these on tailgaters? Heh heh heh...

One sweet shot at a time, load via muzzle or mouthpiece.

[ursabug]

COOL!

This is one of the many reasons I come back to the org each day for my daily dose of dubness.

[from Margaritaville...]

Weren't those shooters the prototypes for "Men in Black"?

[skittle buggy]

Okay if you would put doggie treats in one I bet the snossages would work the best cause they are round or even the sonssages rope like treats cut into pieces...Yes I have thought this out after Squeebug mentioned it to me while walking down the dog food isle at the grocery store.
