first you need 3 things to do this, eye protection, alot of balls and a sturdy fire retardent tip to your pistol. 1 bottle rocket mounted under a small concealed amount of any colourful fireworks powder found at your local 4th of july store. place the powder in a tightly placed baggie upon a sturdy fire retardent piece retro fitted to the end of your gun (i used a piece of iron pipe), time 2 separate fuses to hit at the correct moment or go big (as i did) with an electrical spark from a power source. after ignition a spectacular force of sparks, smoke and light explode out of the gun followed by the bottle rockets trail of smoke. show off your country in style. but caution! this is a Very dangerous little stunt i pulled. for those of you who have fired a rifle or gun of any sort before expect a similar kickback so hang on tightly, point it at least 45 degrees in the air and let her rip! but remember, ignition timing is the key! if you use a small piece of iron piping as i did use the 1/4" non threaded. if you are iffy on it and have the time run some tests with the gun standing alone with it pointed up gripped into a vice. same works even better with the trap! it was a very happy canada day for me and have a ghostbustin' 4th of july!
im gone.

That sounds awesome, back! Congratulations, you're paving new paths in the way of Proton Pack Innovation! Man, you should put it up to be rated.
My brother's a pyrotechnical apprentice. Maybe I can get him to help me with it when I get my pack built by the end of the summer.

ha ha ha RJ. i ran 3 tests with the same components and elements. it really was something to see 2 feet away from your head *major eye protection*, the gun kicking back and watching a trail of smoke blast through the air exploding moments later. it also points in the direction in making an actual weapon out of my prop as well. but the trap was cool to watch. it jumped a little on ignition but still, it gave a real feeling of realism.
im gone.
