If i had to make a weapon without regular ammunition I would want some nasty stuff.

Well you've got some real nasty stuff to work with there. If the idea is to replace double base powder (nitroglycerin/nitrocellulose) acetylene will get you there. You have the credentials for the job, let me know how it works out.

Just for shits and giggles I spent yesyerday answering a call for help from a professional fireworks operator, he owns a business up here in Alaska and every New Years eve he builds five trailers with angled launching tubes that will initiate about 700 rockets, his transmitter would not marry with some receivers. We are talking about a radio controlled firing device that can fire several hundred electro matches individually or in series, each receiver has 18 firing ports for the wires. The transmitter has I think 24 channels, so you can fire 24x18 or in packets.

Anyway it was basically some bad arming switches, the gear was over 20 years old.

But this stuff is available to anyone, imagine during a revolution people with set ups like this. The 3D printer is indeed the genesis of a replicator such as we see on Star Trek. Why I bet if you had a soy based freeze dried block you could adapt a printer like this to duplicate say a hamburger, a steak, a hot dog.
