You cannot buy real ones, because they are illegal in the States. However, if you want to teach your kids how to potentially pick out pieces of PVC from their friends head, here is good link on how to build one. Note, if you are shot with one, the potato can easily penetrate a human body and exit through the back side. Extremely dangerous, probably much more than guns, because they are silent, and the raw materials, costing less than about $20, can easily be assembled by a 10year old.Landlocked said:Just get him a potato cannon.![]()

the plastic balls that shoot out of the guns I am talking about are teeny teeny tiny, it would take a whole handful to even weigh an ounce. ;-)The real potato guns use Idaho Spuds, the baking size.seagrovelover said:never heard of that beforethe plastic balls that shoot out of the guns I am talking about are teeny teeny tiny, it would take a whole handful to even weigh an ounce. ;-)
