I was wondering if it would be acceptable to use gases generated from chemical reactions in tank main guns. Rather than using SCUBA tanks with CO2 or whatever, could you simply mix two chemicals in the gun which would release a gas, pressurize the chamber and fire the nerf or paintballs. Would this be acceptable for a paintball field and has anyone attempted it?
