OK, I guess this is my Rambo (kid) coming out of me but I have always wanted a real M203/M79 grenade launcher. Obviously there are some bad guys that screwed those chances up for all of us. Finally I found something that scratches that itch!
I am really not interested in blowing things up, but lobbing heavy objects over long distances sounds down right fun.
i got one of those 37mm launchers a few years ago and they are just stupid. They look cool but you can not do anything but shoot extremely expensive fireworks from them. The problem is the "round" needs to be a self contained cartridge of sorts. The launcher only has a firing pin and it relies entirely on the round for the propellant and whatever payload it might deploy. In most cases you can get a mortar style of firework or bird bomb. They cost somewhere in the range of $10 a shot if you buy them ready to go. Crazy!
The Can Cannon is completely different. It uses your very real AR lower and lunches objects (soda cans) by using a blank cartridge as propellant. This thing is not a toy! It kicks like a shotgun, got bang, launches a soda can over 100 yards, and makes me giggle like a school girl! LOL
Check it out!

FYI, I would use diet soda. If a can breaks on launch, it will not leave a sticky mess to clean up.
Also, this thing has be in and out of approval from the BATF. As it stands right now, it is completely legal and classified as not a gun. No AOW or short barrel hang-ups.
