it looks pretty nifty. can anybody translate the description on the page for us?
Here's my guess how it works...the 'barrel' is in-line with the side of the can (drum magazine) so that whatever is in that side of the can gets loaded in the 'chamber'...lol...the 'bolt' then pushes it forward for firing position into the target area...underneath the lip....
what i'm wondering is though, if you have a round in the chamber, wouldn't it be unsafe? I mean, wouldn't it dry out and all that....
hmm, i'd like to test fire it.
Its looks interesting. Kind of ugly though. Do you load a can of snus into it or does it click on to a tin?
you have to load a can of snus apparently. if you just put a tin in there (if it fits) while the pump (or bolt as I call it ) would be pulled out...pushing the bolt back in wouldn't go in because the side of the can is in the way, and obviously no snus comes out.
you'd have to cut a 'half circle' hole along the side of the can. as though you were sticking a bolt through the edge of the can.
it basically shaves off snus from what is in the can-shaped drum.
the problem is getting the snus to fall in the 'chamber' where the barrel is connected to the can when the can is closed. snus likes to stay clumped together for the most part.
i'm guessing with the bolt in place, the snus stays fairly fresh, hard to say. i wouldn't mind seeing one of these in icetool format (since they have a gasket)...combine the icetool with their metal snuscan to make the icecannon haha. probably wouldn't fit too well in a pocket though but i'd buy one...if it doesn't cost too much more than either the icetool/snusbox. i don't see why they can't do this.
I'd be more inclined to want this if the construction looked more substantial. The plastic just gives it a bit of a cheap look. I think it would look much, much cooler if it were constructed out of steel or aluminum like Icetool.
I haven't tried the cannon yet, but I'd be inclined to think that perhaps this device could be compared to the Model T Ford. It's in it's primitive developement stage. I really think that it'll be a long time before someone comes up with a device to perform better than the icetool. Of course this is only my humble opinion.
