I might be wrong, but didn't you use MAPP Gas...
That may be the reason your gun, Starman would shoot farther than MoonBogg's.

Yeah, uhh MoonBogg based on your plans from (I think it was) your last topic, just the part that would hold the pre-charged cartridges would cost more than $1000... P.S. I can't remember the name of the part I described above, but it is the revolving three-shooter disks... Sorry for the weak explana...

Instead of making a marble gun, why not try a paintball gun... Sure it wouldn't be as destructive be it would have more colorful results.

I personally like the Gamo Viper better just because of the function of shooting actual shotgun shells. But that might not be what you are looking for... The Walther is good but it isn't anything special.

Why not just make that, then pour an epoxy shell around it, it would make it solid and good looking, just make sure you figure out how to keep a magazine well open. Thats a good idea, but then if a leak is created there is no way he would be able to fix it. If I understand right... Edit: And to ans...

No, its plastic...

What do you mean foam? Like Styrofoam?

When I was wondering around my house completely bored I found a spices bottle that fit s perfectly in my 1 1/4 inch tee, for my piston gun. What I need to know is will it break under the pressure, and if it would, how could I strengthen it?

And thanks for replying, the anticipation was killing me.

Yes, everyone knows the price is high, but he is supporting this site and they have some pretty cool customizable features.

When I look at the map, I see a lot of the people live on the eastern sea board, so why not have it somewhere in the middle?

If its somewhere near me, I'll try to attend.

I've been working on this valve for about 3 days on paper and I finally got my mom to take me to Lowes today, to get my parts for the valve itself. I just put the pieces together for a dry fit, and of coarse I took some pictures. The valve is set in a 1-1/4 inch tee with a 3/4 inch porting. The pist...

Why put a copper barrel on it? when you could have put a PVC one for a total of about 2$ :D that would be one way to save money. Because copper looks cooler? :) Also, I like the ID of 1/2" type M copper. It's a perfect fit for marbles, and other things... Yea, Copper! Yea, Marbles! Yea, Very nice g...
