Homemade Rail-Gun
Impressive… Take a handful of fat capacitors (probably 500uF to 800uF each) and hook them up to an electromagnetic coil; make a stylish weapon. Now, the typical muzzle velocity of a handgun is about 1200km/h, whereas this gun only fires at 110km/h; so it won’t kill you, but it’ll hurt like Hell. By the way, real rail guns supposedly fire aluminum projectiles at relativistic speeds (near the speed of light), which is why you only see them in science fiction.
Daniel Eindhoven is talented designer who created this cool coil gun. It took around 40 hours to finish this outstanding job. It weights 5 Kg and, capable of delivering over 18J kinetic energy, and speeds up to 110km/h . This weird coil gun has laser pointer for easy aiming and it costs around 100 Euros. It needs 8 seconds to fire a projectile if is connected to power source or 90 seconds with batteries. It is really impressive, I’m not a gun lover but this one is really made with creativity.

wooow very good can u help me make 1 piz here is my mail oldsnake1993@yahoo.com tnx you!
actualy railguns are completly possible, and are in testing currently. they shoot about mach7, and up to 200 miles. the military is improving on the caliber limit.
Railguns are different from coilguns – this one is a coilgun. They both use electromagnetism but in different ways. Coilguns are easy to build at home, but can’t approach railgun exit velocities.
Ok, WTF? Whats with that light at the tip? If your going to try and make a rail gun like this, try and do it with the thought that your going to be using it heavily. Whats the point of that light at the tip anyway?
1. thats a coilgun.
2. the capacitors are around 1 kilojoule.
3. (speed of light) wat? more like mach 8.
4. ?????
5. PROFIT
Some have pointed out that this is a Coil Gun, and I think they’re right. My bad. And yeah, I don’t know what the deal with the lightbulb is either.
