I’ve a firearm license tbh. That’s the rifles max fill. It flattens most pellets as they leave the barrel so I run it as 14lb.

fair enough mate.

Made a launcher for full bake bean tins etc as a kid.

I think I still have a launcher for empty coke cans, the sort with a rim at both ends that needed a can puncturerer to open (two triangular holes on opposite sides of the diameter to pour for those not old enough to remember before ring pulls), it used .22 rimfire blanks.

As it doesn't have a barrel it presumably doesn't count as a fire arm. AFAICs anything with a barrel that can fire something the size of a grape vertically over 100ft is.

If we're looking for legal definitions the definition of a firearm is simply 'a lethal barrelled weapon of any description from which any shot, bullet or missile can be discharged'.

I have built one about two years ago and been working with it almost every day. Now it's back to workshop to modify. Some pictures coming when work progresses more

It wasn’t at first. I filled off my dive canister and checked the pressure (22lb) and sh*t a brick. Retested it to make sure. Then added it. With Prometheus it’ll pop a car door.
