Hmm I'm still not quite understanding the components of that mechanism...:( Here's the sequence: Ahh I understand completely now :) Thankyou very much for your help... Unfortunately I will have to implement this design in another gun, I've started putting epoxy on this current one :/ It's going to ...

You mean as a semi-automatic? I tried it too at 100 psi and there was too much friction. With HPA or a manual reload it should work just fine though. Hmm I'm still not quite understanding the components of that mechanism...:( I'm surprised it works at all. Your heart is in the right place but you n...

Thank-you very much for your input, I do appreciate it all :) I do notice that when it fires (very solidly I might add) that a lot of air air escapes out the pilot, When the piston was a little tighter (It's just a screw with tape around it at the moment) I could fire it with the schrader valve, whi...

Thank-you very much for your reply I'm thinking of spending the next three the weeks working on this one, hopefully getting it to work accurately, then maybe I will make a few more, perhaps a semi-auto one.

Hello everyone :) This is a prototype of my first piston actuated air rifle, the photo's that you see here are what it looks like currently, I will update them as I go along. The parts were partially sourced from materials around my home and partially from Bunnings (I'm from Australia). It has appro...

Aussies all they way!! I'm working on my own air rifle now, hopefully get it up to say 300psi and perhaps a 6mm barrel would be handy, if I can get my hands on come copper pellets...anyway mate good luck with your creation, it's holidays for me now so I can get a lot done on this! :P Edit: Heading d...
