Build-it-Yourself Cannons and Mortars

A Paintball Cannon (aka air cannon, potato launcher, spud gun, PAW, etc) is a large bore paintgun that is designed to fire multiple paintballs at once like a shotgun or a single larger projectile like a water balloon. Their use is sometimes restricted at some fields and games.

Although most cannons don't have the same range as a paintball gun, point blank firing at anything is very dangerous since it is likely to hit the target with 30+ paintballs at once. Cannons should not be used at ranges less than 20 feet. Cannon ranges with paintballs is usually between 100-150 feet. Throughout the years, Alternative Paintball has offered many types of paintball cannons. Plans are still available for a majority of the cannons we build!
