I am gonna make a pipe bomb launcher here is my plan:
Potato gun for cannon
One PVC pipe with bbs and other small metal 4 shrapnel
Smaller metal pipe filled with black powder in middle
but i can’t figure out a good way to detonate on impact
also weight is a factor
help would be appriceated

To impact, the end caps could both have blasting caps attached to an impact explosive, or the impact explosive attached somehow to a fuse.  And what would you use to launch the bomb?  what kinda fuel.  How about model rocket enignes, you could rig the smoke powder, so that they lgiht the pipe bomb.
