No, not to hurt people with.
First, a little background:
At school, we have a game called "assassins" going on. 97 people signed up this time to play. We get a picture in our email of the person we are supposed to kill and we go kill them by throwing something soft at them (it can't hurt).
I am alive so far (game started monday, only 25 people left), and I hope to make it to the weekend. I am wanting to make a claymore mine out of PCV, and powered by compressed air. It will be released with a sprinkler valve triggered by my wired remote (maybe eventually I'll put on a motion detector and magnets so the magnets are on his door. When the door opens, THEN a movement is detected, it goes off that way it won't go off when random people walk by). What I need is an idea for projectiles. They must not be hard or dense, and a new rule states they must weight at least 1 gram. I WAS going to use the foam balls out of a beanbag chair.... I need ideas for small projectiles that weight about a gram. I am probably going to be using a 1 inch or so barrel, so I would like the projectiles to be around a quarter inch or so. I want to put at LEAST 10, preferably 30+ into the thing. I will test fire the thing at myself starting at low pressures to see if it is safe.
It will be for offensive AND defensive (ie, have dual barrels perhaps, one pivoting so they can aim same direction or opposite direction, then throw out the door to clear the hall of my assassin). The guy happens to live in the same town I do...hopefully he will go home this weekend He won't be expecting to be attacked there (the facilitator has already ruled that I can do that).
So, any ideas?
No explosives!
