Best Answer

a spud gun comes in tow varieties. one is called a pneumatic and the other is some other thing.

pneumatic spud guns have a barrel, a valve and a tank. The tank is filled with compressed air and then, after inserting the potato, the valve is opened, sending the spud flying.

The other kind. People that end up blowing themselves up is a barrel directly hooked to a tank with no valve. Some combustible substance is put in the tank (hairspray) and ignited, creating an explosion, pushing the potato out of the barrel

Is hair spray best for a spud gun?

Well, honey, using hairspray for a spud gun might give you a little extra oomph, but it's not the best choice. You're better off using something like propane or butane for a more powerful and consistent shot. Trust me, you don't want to be caught with limp results when you're aiming for the stars.

Do spud guns shoot out whole potatoes?

Depends. There is the large potato gun/ potato cannon/ spud gun. These are several feet long, and shoot a whole potato. However, in the 1950s, there was a toy also called a Spud Gun. It used air pressure to shoot a very small sliver of potato a few feet. They were generally red plastic, and about 3 inches long.
