Portabalizing A burst disc gun

So I was thinking.... I really like my burst disc cannon. I want to make a smaller one that's a little more compact.
The biggest drawback to these type is that you hve to be near an air source to fire them.
I wouldn't like dealing with the hassle of co2. Instead, I want to be able to make a tank attached to the gun that I could pre-fill and take somewhere. Then when it's time to shoot, I bleed air from the reserve tank into the main chamber.
I'm not really sure how to go about doing it though. Help me please.

get a big tank and have it in ure bag or straped to the bottem of the gun then use it to fill a much smaller chamber 8)

...the alternative would be to make a triggered burst disk - the duel disk kind.
(I believe it's technicaly a "cascade failure" system - and is explained in the wiki)

Well every one says go to the Wiki. I think it is starting to sink in.

BLB specifically noted that such was discussed and explained in the 'wiki'. I was simply directing you to the specified article. Maybe you were expecting to be spoon fed the answer?
