Yeah trust me, I know how lucky I am to work there. But yes, I would hope it would have more destructive potential than a few pine boards with the muzzle energy of a colt peacemaker :lol: And I absolutely plan on painting it up and a side mounted scope would be amazing. Also jsr, when you say anythi...

Yeah luckily at my job spare fittings are readily available, the whole gun only ended up costing me $50, which I don't think is bad at all for the (okay slightly ridiculous) amount of fittings I have. And I will get a damage vid up when I can, problem is that I work early to late (sunlight) most day...

I actually work at a swimming pool distributor, and all of the PVC we get is required by state law to be pressure rated, so they are pressure rated street elbows and all of the fittings are correct length. This also explains the primer issue, everything is clear primered. Appreciate the concerns tho...

2" Golf/Tennis Ball Shoulder Launched Cannon + Damage!

Alright, so this is my second pneumatic gun, the first one I made was a 1.5" piston valve gun which was... well, quite frankly, it was crap. Now, I present the fruits of my labor: 2" piston valve with 1.5" porting, piloted by 3/4" sprinkler ~5' chamber, 2" PVC Interchangeable barrels -4' 2.5" Tennis...

Okay awesome thanks Crna. Thing is, if I drill a hope in the piston, won't it slowly leak air out?

Chamber Filled Pilot QEV?

Hey spudfiles, wondering if you guys could help me out. I need a QEV which works like a sprinkler valve (I think this means it's chamber filled? But I'm not totally sure...) Basically I need it to act as a sprinkler valve, still blowgun-triggered, I just need it to be smaller than a sprinkler valve ...

Alright, I have everything constructed except for the back firing/filling area, my sprinkler valve is still in the mail. But besides that, everything seems to be working as planned. And yes Jack, I did end up needing barrel supports. I used 3 cut pieces of .5 inch PVC to center it on.
