self defense

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

It is a small rechargeable co2 canister, rated at 250 bar pressure, an array of fittings, and a 2 foot copper "barrel". The idea is to charge the canister with the compressor, load a projectile in the barrel, and let it rip :thefinger:
it's quite lethal, and I'm welcomign a burglar to my place :hahaha:
it releases so much pressure that there is steam coming out of the barrel after taking a shot :thumbup:
just gotta experiment with what type of shot will work best
