The Lockpick Airsoft Mini Shell Launcher

THIS IS NOT A FIREARM NOR CAN IT FUNCTION AS ONE\nIMGUR Gallery with fire demo http://imgur.com/a/ATX5z\nThis is my prototype for a miniature Airsoft launcher based on the Goblin shotgun shells. It's small, light and easy to operate.\nBe warned, this is still a prototype and still has a few flaws but it's operable as is. You will need some extra hardware to get a complete unit, namely;\n6-32 hex nuts X 4\n6-32x1 1/4'' mechanical screws X 2 (For the clamp, they'll have to be cut down slightly)\n6-32x1/4'' mechanical screw X 1 (For the throw stop, it will need to be cut down slightly)\n6-32x1'' mechanical screw X1 (For the firing pin. All the threads below the first couple will have to be filed down to a 2.5mm diam.)\napprox 5mm diam. x 15mm length spring (I salvaged one from a Nerf gun). Anything of sufficient strength that can fit between the button and the bottom of the trigger block should work.\nSpaenaur #7 X 1/2'' (HEX 1/4'' AF Self tapping) X 8 (You can use any self-tapping screws of similar dimensions. Only the screws on the back side serve an actual purpose, holding the cap and the button in place, the ones in front are just for show.)\n6mm diam. X 3mm thick Neodymium magnets, preferably around or over 5000gauss (To help keep the chamber closed)\nI am not going to write detailed build instructions as this is not a finished version. It works, however, I'm sure you all can figure it out
