Uses 220v AC to charge the capacitor.
Hold button to ccharge, flick the switch to release the power to the coil

Doesn't work and in any case guns kill people! They have no positive use. The arms industry is evil!

Do you know that without the arms industry we would not have all the technologies we have right now? Not all the evil things are going to hurt

It's an electromagnetic experiment not an assault rifle. Can you explain why this wont work?

Guys these 1 coil coilguns have only efficiency around 3 - 5% so 1mF cap charged to 320Volts has output energy around 2Joules! That's energy which can shoot 50g projectile about 5 meters! Real guns have energy more than 2kJ!

@WTFcircuit, if this is true, then mankind doesn't deserve to exist any longer on this plant! I hope its not our only motivation for research to kill people! In early day we made tools to make fire, build houses and use them for farming. I don't belief mankind's central motivation is making weapons. Looking back my live, it seems to have a fascination for young boys making weapons. If you are older its getting boring. I hope you will agree in 30years. There are much more important things to do then stupid weapons.

The app is called everycircuit, not ethiccircuit, we should rather compliment the upload of pkerpo

@pkerpo, 50% of your circuits are weapons, thats NOT common sense!
