When I was a kid we all made the same “gun” but instead of using a clothes pin half as a “shell” we used a strike any where match. Work great!

We used to make those all the time as kids. Worked great for spitballs or hard peas.

We used the half of the second clothes pin (listed as “shell”)to cock the unit kind of like a muzzleloader.
