Re: Paintball tank vs other air source

First I like to think of what I want. How do u see yourself firing, loading, fueling, maintaining, and storing this rifle. All those cool features you've seen in all your favorite stallone movies. By the time u can picture yourself running through the woods reloading you'll have the thing built and ...

Re: First launcher, what type of valve?

It sounds like u don't plan on building a collection. With only one launcher to concentrate on I'd build it with quality standard parts for easier upgrades and repairs down the road.

I've drawn up a bouncing betty a while back. The valve was triggered by a 4ft cord that was attached to a base. No need to time the valves. The base was gonna work like the valve u drew. Someone really should make one. I'm already working on something. I know it would be fun to build, though.
