If you have wooden flooring, try to look for a loose floor board, and then try to get the cannon under there if you can, if not, air vants, cieling, the loft, shed, dog house. Anywhere where your mom is unlikly to look

Anyway, thats my two cents.

As to hiding your current gun... got a shed? under the back deck? if you have a firewood pile, under/behind it? Hang it from the ceiling in your closet? If all else fails.... in a garbage back hanging from a nearby tree? Hiding stuff isn't that hard, man. Just be creative. But I agree with SpudBlaster15, explaining why it's not dangerous to your mom is a much better route. Print up some info about the pressure ratings, etc... and try to explain it to her. If that fails.. hide it anyway :) And don't blame us when you get caught (will happen eventually).

Peace,
Pete Zaria.
thats a cool idea! I might just have to build that!
okay fine but instead of a backpack put in in one of those big alminum, you know the kind in the movies that always have bombs in them

when i said that my dad doesn't care i mean he really doens't give a flipin F*@k if i keep it or not and with my mom he would side with her not wanting to die lol. umm yea where could i hide it outside? my dad is a lawn nut so it would be hard under the deck plus then i have things crawling into it and rain but i gues a tarp and box can fix that lol.

Has anyone said your attic? Just look around, probly in your garage or a closet, for a hatch in the ceiling. Stash it behind a stud and forget about it. Up in a tree in the "woods"? If all else fails, confront her, as everyone is saying.

Or paint it the same color as you walls and lean it against it. :roll: Its that easy. Keeping stuff in the attic might be a bad idea. Here in texas, I know flying salt lives in dallas so you might understand (at least i hope he is or else im looking like a moron), It gets freakin hot and the attic at my house gets to about 120 degrees on a 100 degree day. This said I left a piece of 1/2 inch pvc in my attic at the begining of summer and at the end it was yellow, warped and very brittle. I tested it with another peice of 1/2in that wasnt ruined and it was much stronger. I dropped a 10lb weight from 10 inches above each pipe and dropped it. The brittle one shattered ito tons of peices and the regular pipe got broken but the peices where still attached to the pipe not counting the tiny peices that did actually break off.

yeah, you can only hide it up there if you have REALLY mild summers. Yes, you are right, my attic tends to get quite hot. If you live up north you probly have a basement full of junk, right?

why do you say it would smell? i would just put it in a garbage bag, and put it somewhere outside. i remember back when i was like 6, i got ahold of some fireworks, and i dug a 4 foot deep hole in my woods, put the fireworks in a baggie, covered the hole with a piece of slate, and threw some dirt on top. no one found them untill i lit them off in my back yard
in the upcoming presidential election, there will be several candidates who will be running, one of whom is Hillary Clinton. Now WAIT A SECOND!!! I though there was some sort of rule that prevented someone from serving more than two terms in office. Vote Against Hillary: Presidential Elections 08
