SKS 59/66 Golfball Launcher

[Shooter]

Saw one of these lately. It clamped to the grenade launcher with set screws. It looks pretty simple but I couldn't get details. Anyone made one?
Owner said he used a small charge of Unique but woudn't reveal amount.
Looks like fun.:bigsmyl2:

Yeah, that's it. I bet I can make one for less than 50 clams.
If I can come up with a starting load of unique. I wonder if quickload will handle that.:veryconfu

although that one's 1/2x28 threaded for AR's

but wouldn't be hard to ream out to 22 mm and put a few threaded holes for set screws

Made one for my cetme and use 308 blanks, it really launches them out thier I would hate to get hit with one. It is alot of fun, The tubing is a little heavy but you can turn it down some if needed.

Thanks Coleman. I will probably use seamless hydraulic line from the scrap yard.

Shooter, The golf balls have a dia. of 1.685. It depends on how new the golf ball is or how well used, this is the tubing that i found had the closest id size. Some golf balls will fall in and others need to push in with a stick and some that were very tight but shot well.
They will fly straight for about 100yrds then some will cut to the left/right/up/down or on some other direction they fly. Can get golf balls of flebay, but need to buy 500 + to get good buy.
Inless you have a very big feild that dosent have alot of grass or brushes, You can count on not finding very many of them. Have fun! Coleman
