that gun looks awsome. I like tha fact it looks very clean. I like the seamless elbow. i also like the fact it has no exposed wires. i like every thing on this gun in fact. I cant wait to go to the range and shoot it with you. so in conclusiion its a good change from original version and it looks good.

wow, that looks great. no exposed wires, everything is neatly configured, well planned out and assembled. i love it. what sort of speed do you mean by unseen with almost all other combustion launchers (in fps)? that thing is amazing, great work.

The multiple spark trend is just gibberish, the power comes from the mix not the lil electric sparks.

Looks pretty clean apart from the two white streaks - what are they?

Nice, clean, and functional. I really like this cannon as well as the handle. That is a very nifty piece. I couldn't help to notice though that your barrel is a bit too long and unstable. In the first picture, it has a lot of bend in it. Apart from that is is a very well put together cannon. :thumbup:

I dont think a video is a requirement for the contest but it would probably help your chances for winning the contest.
