Scenario Paintball Players League (SPPL) Launcher Rules:

17.3) Rocket Launchers: (Limit: one (1) launching device per team and 10 rockets projectiles used per 1 hour game.) All rockets must chronograph under the speed of 230 feet per second. All rockets must have a device for plugging the barrel and must use ONLY two-inch Nerf rounds.

The SPPL launcher was specifically designed to meet the requirements of SPPL competition rules. The following specifications were taken into consideration for the design:

• The ability to fire up to 10 rounds on a single fill.

• The ability to effectively and accurately launch Nerf Pocket Vortex rockets.

• All discharges regulated to under 230 fps and integrated barrel plug.

• Light and compact to allow the user the ability to carry a full load and primary marker.

• The ability to pass a basic safety inspection by game officials.

I won't be going into extremely detailed step-by-step instructions. This guide is intended as a primer for similar launcher designs. The same concept can be used to create a wide variety of personal launchers or even tank mounted defense. Most of the parts used can easily be purchased at most hardware stores or online retailers. Some parts, like the pistol grip, will require some custom work on your part. Rather than simply copying my design I recommend creating something you can truly call your own.
