So far:
CO2 Powered
Blowing
Air Compression (Plunger)
Air Pump
Spring Powered (Direct)
Edit:
Gas Combustion
Any other ideas?

Twenty posts and you still can't use proper capitalization or grammar? I would cut back on the mistakes very shortly, otherwise you will get hit by the suspension train.what about like dry ice and hot air or alka seltzer and water maybe even baking soda and vinegar
all of these incredibly diffucult but still possible

I'm willing to bet at least one person here has heard of a gauss gun, where there is an inductor fed a high voltage pulse of electricity, causing a projectile to rapidly accelerate. With the right sort of (iron, cobalt, nickel) weight in the stefan, it could be projected at high speeds. It would require much more energy to fire a foam covered piece with high wind resistance than a dense solid slug, so making one you can easily move from place to place might not be realistic.electric/magnetic

Isn't that also known as a rail gun?I'm willing to bet at least one person here has heard of a gauss gun, where there is an inductor fed a high voltage pulse of electricity, causing a projectile to rapidly accelerate.

I've seen a lot of people posting ideas like alka-seltzer, but this and many others are just different ways of producing air pressure; there really aren't that many ways to propel a chunk of foam when all of the available methods are considered.

A rail gun is a specific application of the Gauss Gun principles.Isn't that also known as a rail gun?

Unlikely. Check http://www.railgun.org to read about some guy's attempts at a homebrew railgun. Chief limitations are that it is not portable, sucks juice like a crazed wino, and would still only get 200 m/s. Based on how long it has been since the page was updated, it seems unlikely they were successful, anyway.A small railgun using some compasitors and a charging unit, like a cluster of camera flashes could work.
