RAM = Real Action Marker.

Think paintball, but using a .43 cal round (rubber also available), with reasonably realistic ammo loads and shell casings.  And the guns are as realistic as a paintball gun can be.

www.nztga.co.nz is a NZ-based tactical gaming organisation, which seems to do nothing but RAM now.  Have a look in the gallery and video sections.

(And Ty, you should get a RAM and join )

Heh, as long as you stop into customs and say "yo im in yr country" I'm sure it is

One thing, full auto is illegal here, for RAM and airsoft.  Not that I'm worried, means my ammo goes further

I used a balloon and and a half of 600ml coke bottle.
Balloon grips to the screw-on part of the bottle tip. You get the idea.
But seriously, if they won't bring back Airsoft in Australia, i will have to get blueprints of a cheap plastic one, and make one myself.. (out of metal).

When I was young, I made a miniature bow with a plastic build-a-crap ice cream stick and a rubber band. It shot satay sticks clean through cardboard.

Not on full auto, same rules as RAM.  Our local group has some sweet fields though; some commercial fields around a pine forest which we've just been given permission to play on, and a couple of old hospitals!

You do more damage with a folded piece of paper and an elastic band, it hurts. Trust me ive been hit in the eye 4 times by the pellets.

Yeah, it's basically a scaled down potato gun that can fire lemons or limes, I also built one that can fire key limes, it's a lot cheaper to buy key limes instead of the lemons/limes/potatoes, it sounds like a .45 going off and can penetrate ~10" into a mound of dirt.

spud guns are very fun, just be careful that you don't put a hole through the neighbors fence.

I don't live in a subdivision, so there aren't any fences to put holes in.

Here one I found on the web:

https://www.boredsheepless.com/boredsheepless/wp-content/lemon.jpg

The chamber is made out of a 4" tube and the barrel 1 1/2" for the lemon launcher and 1" for the key lime launcher. I use super-hold hairspray for the aerosol and a lamp lighter for the ignition.

The lemon launcher goes about 400 feet and the key lime launcher goes about 550 feet. Both while going about 100 feet in the air...
