Potato Gun

This World is particularly dedicated to the bad boy of vegetable weaponry. And I have answers to everything you have always wanted to know about potato guns but were afraid to ask. Disclaimer: this world is dedicated to combustion ignition systems, only. Pneumatics: Go build your World elsewhere.
