I am thinking about building a potato gun and I want it to be as safe as possible. I know that PVC is pressure rated but theats about all I know. ABS is more flexible but can it support the heat and pressure of a combustion potato gun? Please tell me which material I should use.

PVC is a better choice, its stronger, hold more, and is just all around better!

ABS is stronger I work at a plastic injection molding plant so I should know plus pvc melts at a lower temp.
