it could be something you pull like a trigger on a gun. It doent have to be pulled out of the way quickly, because the cylinder is already pressurized behind the stop.

Also, I think the largest cylinders you can get from the supply list has a 2 foot piston. That should be big enough to shoot just about anything!
