Can you build a working gun from scratch only using eqipment from home depot? me and a friend have a bet.?

Question

I said that u can. I don't know how though. Either a gun or a hand cannon.

Answer 1

yea Id put money that you could make a zip gun (improvised gun)

I could totaly see how it would work too

get like a metal tube to house the bullet, make some sort of system to keep the casing stuck at the back of the tube and ussing like industrial rubber bands or something you could get some sort of rig to propel a pin to hit the primer on the bullet

-----------------------------------

Imagine that set up but with rubber bands attached to the tube and pin

Answer 2

It depends

If you mean just the gun then i bet you can

It will take somone extremly talented

But you will still need bullets and gunpowder and there isnt any home depots that sell those here

If you really want to build a weapon from items in your house go here. This is very fun. Less dangerous and less work.

Answer 3

All you need to do to fire a bullet is provide enough impact on the centerfire button, it should be pretty easy to either send a bullet huling toward a pin with enough speed to activate the charge such as in a mortar type setup, or make some kind of pull back spring loaded pin that is sent toward the stationary bullet with great speed to activate the charge such as in a zip gun type setup.

***If you actually attempt this be sure to remotely activate the device,  Bullets do after all contain explosive material, and it is possible that the device made from inferier home depot materials could fracture when fired and the energy could send peices of the gun/housing flying as well as the bullet***
