Launch It: The Pneumatic Potato Pistol.

Step 4 Firing

Pull the plunger out before you load the gun.

Insert your ammunition - either a paper pellet, or a lump of spud. To load with potato, press the barrel into the potato and lever it out. That will leave a spud "bullet" sitting in the barrel mouth. You could ram it further down the barrel with a matchstick, but there's really no benefit.

Hold the pistol in your favoured fist, with the barrel sticking out past your fingers, aim, and smack the plunger with your other hand.

ingenious and resourceful. I think it might be a little easier to useif the nozzle was inserted into the back of the pen so that the whole rig was in-line.
