This 25-inch field cannon uses flint and a automatic charging mechanism to fire calcium carbide “ammunition.” In other words, it will create one hell of a flash and boom—and it can fire several shots in succession. Use it to celebrate a big event, or just place it on your desk at work to add emphasis. Sales are up 50% bitches! BOOM!

this does not use gasoline, it is made by the Conestoga company, http://www.bigbangcannons.com

calcium carbine is a powder that when added to water creates hydrogen, the flint makes the spark to set it off.

I own several, and basically anything that weighs more than a pingpong ball wont go anywhere.

Actually calcium carbide produces acetylene gas.
