Around 30 or so pounds. The trailer is about 100 or so.

I could see that mounted in the back of an old Toyota pickup truck and used as a "Technical" .. It would be more tactical and you could rig a decent air compressor up to fill it faster.

I have some inverters that will run a nice sized compressor off the car battery....I see something very sexy, dangerous, and no fun to be on the receiving end of mounted on my truck in the near future:)

The tank on the cannon is a 5 gallon tank that needs to be filled to 60 psi. A portable air tank that will sit in the trailer part that is 5 gallon at 150 psi will be able to fill it about 12 times. (Not sure on the exact numbers, but I got all the math from the video)

imagine a hard-plumbed compressor mount... big firing rate increase?
If you sold it right now, what would you want for it?

Wow 12 times sounds pretty nice, what are the dimensions of the tank?

Just for the hell of it, I'll make a progress topic on the cannon. Apparently we are now making an AA gun @_@
