Nail Cannon Apocalypse Gun

After watching a gunsmith use an old scuba tank for a cannon in the show "American Guns" it inspired me to do a apocalyptic gun made with an old scuba tank. Here I designed the "Nail Cannon", a shoulder hanging pipe bomb with directional force. The idea was to create a weapon made up of various found items that had deadly ability and versatility. The tank can be filled with pretty much anything from nails to rocks and would work like an old wad firing gun; the user would press in a fabric or whatever they acquired to act as the wad, then drop in their projectiles. The rear of the chamber has space for gas to build up, then a pull of the trigger ignites the gas, creating an explosion, launching the shrapnel.
