ok story time

so me and some friends have recently gotten into spud guns since like last fall we've been messing around for a while with em in my friends backyard with targets. they haven't been a problem until like last 2 weeks. keep in mind we had ridden dirt bikes, quads,fireworks, made fires etc pretty much anything noisy we've done there as well.

one night a complaint was made of loud noises with a concern of potatoes hitting their house. so a cop came over to investigate, we showed him the target and the guns which he was 100% okay with, it was just that fact that it was like 930 (understandable) so we called it a night. nvr said dont do it again.

2 weeks later

now sunday we decieded to mess around and setup another plywood target at about 700ish. wouldnt you know it 2o mins later cops show up for a complaint of get this, "gunshots" wtf? so of course the cop gives us a bunch of BS about "its a weapon, a projectile comes out blah blah blah" so we stopped, but the officer didnt say anything about us breaking laws for possessing them, firing them, or too much noise.

heres a letter <<<http://members.tripod.com/j-shortreed/batf.htm>>> from teh Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms in regards to spud guns. so im thinkin i should go and have a talk, b/c if im not breaking any laws, them were gonna keep havin fun

anybody else make these contraptions? or have any trouble with the fuzz?

oh heres my launcher, notice its kinda hard to hide...
