You like?
nice 
4" drain pipe and a can of OD Krylon???? 
Ah quality mate, any chance of a few more pics or a little video?
Also how does it "Load" in the Airsoft world same as the real thing?
Nice bit of kit there, now to unleash it on an unexpected german as he walks into a house! 
You havent by any chance used it to "throw" a "chemical" charged pyro. (or soemthing similiar) I believe the ones they used in the mortars in one of the WW2 games were done in that way.
Yes powder works great for effect, this guy uses that idea but with an electric air compressor.

Free speech is expensive these days!
looks real nice man, i am jealous.
i still think you need to away to use it like a long grenade throw, a "soft air" way is to fill up the nade with Gas but no BB's and drop a lit smoke or bang in it and then pull the trigger. Although doing this is, i think actually breaking the law in the UK. (not 100% sure) but if you use a chemical nade instead of one filled with a tiny explosive it is legit. From what i can remember someone telling me before.
Again depending on the type of nade and amount of gas you can get greater results. Also by filling some of the loading tubes (say 1/2) which the BB come out of will generate more power out of the non filled half, thus allowing ur lit nade/smoke/nerf ball to travel furthur.
Firing propelled pyro directly isn't OK here and isn't a sensible option anyway. Heh, you aren't even supposed to throw pyro at anyone - the instructions expressly forbid you to do this! The mortar firing solutions of TLSFX that we use are HSE approved. This isn't the place to go into the whys and wherefores but bazooka launched pyro can't be done (in the UK anyway) , cool though the idea is.

Sorry my knowledge is not great what does HSE stand for? All what i know is hear say and reading what people (like yourselves) have written on the forums. I thought that using Thermobaric Nades managed to get around the "law".
Also as reference they are making a "mortar" (i use that term lightly)

Testing of the new Thermosmokes mortars at TLSFx test range. Note that the actual firing tube, is subcalibre and the actual 'mortars' are just for show (They are film prop motars and not actual mortars). Availability will only be to P2 registered users as per Pyrotechnic Articles (Safety) Regulations 2009. The smoke projectors are Non-stabilised by fin or by rotation and are fully in compliance with the Fireams Act Section 5 (1ae). Still in the final parts of development.
And having a quick look found [link]http://www.bis.gov.uk/assets/biscore/consumer-issues/docs/09-1152-pyrotechnic-articles.pdf[/link] which covers the laws around pyro and fireworks. Havent had a chance to read it in depth yet as going to work shortly but its long! P2 laws start on pg13 and then continue on page 17.
HSE=Health and Safety Executive.
No need to delve into the legislation - the experts have already done the graft, and graft it was too.
BTW, the thermobaric devices are not approved now, we have to use the smoke kit TLSFX are demonstrating.

But they will only give the smoke kit to P2 holders? Which seems pretty pointless? Unless there is another way to secure them?

Ahhh... I did wonder why the mortars were only firing smoke at devil's hill!
@ Yith - yes, it's not the same is it.
@ Stu - Well, no airsoft site or WW2 game is going to let players turn up with their own pyro launching kit, so the question is somewhat academic really.
Gunman and CiA have such kit (and I dare say other WW2 and non-WW2 game organisers) and it is provided for player use following instruction/supervision on use.
There are previous threads that discuss the usefulness of missile launchers of various sorts and methods and I think one can safely say that practically speaking they aren't much use other than physical props and can be more trouble than they are worth. Have a look at the St Lo game (or was it Op Lightning) for one solution. Of course, as intended, a giant moscart works too!
Heh, it was St Lo... though note that the bazooka didn't actually get used in-game! Though it was intended to be...
Ah, St Lo then. Yeh, that was my point - the idea is cool but practically often mitigates against.
