I know life happened to me.... But when I have children, I will pass down the tips of the trade and they will carry on the legacy. May their cannons trump mine in every possible way :D and my reason for not doing combustions? My parents are more afraid of things that emit flame. When I have my own h...

they sell 1/8 inch QDC's on mcmaster with built-in check valves. They are used on the 4000 PSI paintball tanks, and are best suited to high pressures (im currently converting my HP guns to them)

EDIT: whoops someone beat me to it..... heh...

In my opinion, Leave it as is if it's already ergonomic. Attach your scope with some hose clamps and a weaver rail.

I actually hard-piped my trigger hose in with 1/8 inch pipe nipples. It held everything in really nice, and looked REALLY clean. Not to mention you do away with compression fittings, which dont like being moved around alot....

I have always wanted to make a copper gun of this configuration. So sexy.

Only improvement I see is to add a QEV at the pilot area to decrease the pilot volume behind your piston (and release it faster)

I use this method in my cannons and the power gains are mind boggling.

Also, sweet grip :D

If my Airsoft Experience may be of assistance, the best way to get this to work (and probably the only way to get it to work) is to use the same method as the rifled airsoft barrels. These can be found here Basically, instead of the BB catching the lands and spinning, the barrel creates a vortex aro...

Red Ryder 200 Shot Carbine Action range-model BB gun with a compass in the stock and a thing which tells time... Legit. About 200 dollars worth of lowes gift certificates, a hand drill that makes my computer crash if I run it on the same power circuit as the computer (ITS BEASTLY), and a flash drive...

The Muzzle blast in that video is just Beautiful. There needs to be a different angle on that so we can all feast on it.

just started taking it apart..... Pretty dang cool. The place where the water gets cooled is a good 15 lb coil of tubes....

Kinda smells bad too. Like and old dusty place. (I hear no leaks, So its not that....) Kinda yucky.
