I've tried nail polish too, but it messes up the barrel a bit. The concealer seems to work very well, and it dries very quickly. I have tried (photo), painting the entire pellet, only the skirt, and one or two coats of corrector. What works best is a single coat of corrector and only on the skirt of...

20220616_115007.jpg Speaking of this weapon, this is version "2". The number "1", it is valveless... it does not have any valve. I am trying to seal the chamber directly with the pellet in the barrel. The pellet is "prepared", it has a bit of spelling corrector to increase the seal, (it's perfect),...

Not in this case because the gun is a bit heavy about 3.4kg... I used 3mm tri-ply wood with a layer of thin fiberglass on the inner side, and screwed to the metal. In other models yes, I have used hard balsa because the weapon is very light.

Very clean work, nice "proper" evolution after all that prototyping... I like the markings too, although perhaps it's more of a Fuerza Aerea (+Butanea) Argentina sort of equipment :D Hi Jack!! Oh yes, I'm going to change the brand as you suggest :) . Thank you for viewing my work. A greeting for you!

It was more or less like that, like in the drawing.

Thank you so much guys!

This is a project called "Armadas 1500 II". It is a weapon that works with an integrated air pump, it is a single shot, hybrid that precompresses at 8X - 10X. The firing barrel is with 12 microgrooves, caliber .25 and fires common pellets. The inverted bolt is made of 1045 steel, the combustion cham...

I thought it doesn't last much use, but it works very well, up to 10 bar. I'm about to buy the 5-way, two-position one to shrink everything a bit.

You can adapt this way. If you use only one one-way valve for charging and exhaust, one end of the long inner tube must be perfectly capped and secured. You can assemble everything outside, and then seal the inner tube with epoxy. In my opinion, if you secure the valve well with a pin, it is safer t...

Sistema carga de munición accionado por gases, diagrama, (1).gif The problem with the automatic loading of balls is that the spring of the tube that houses the ammunition does not survive more than two or three shots because when it opens, the pressure of the explosion expels the bb`s towards the s...

Updating of this project, in this case, the LB VI, (lansa bolillas 6). :) LB VI.JPG This prototype is the one that I recently built, which has several important simplifications with respect to the previous one, the first one. Shoots 5X, .25 caliber steel bbs. The loading in the chamber of the ammuni...

it looks very cute. Nice job!

By the way, your work and completion is excellent.

This regulator was designed to be manufactured with inexpensive precast bronze parts, available anywhere. Does not use lathe machining for metal. The two grooves for the two o'rings are made on the domestic bench drilling machine and a small file. It can be put together in a couple of hours ... What...

It is not so difficult to make the air passage channel. I drilled a hole in the body of the regulator "A" and then made a slot with the Dremel, as the drawing shows, but without breaking the inside of the body, where the piston moves. In this way, there is a conduit through which air can pass betwee...
