i am going to make my paintaball sniper into a bolt action, how would i seal the barrel and what materials would i need, i am going to make the barrel 3/4" (or nearest mm) so it will slot into a 1" pipe.

here are some things you should know 7/8" drill bits even the flat kind are perfect for cleaning out a 3/4cpvc tee, 3/4 pvc couplers fit around the outside of 3/4" CPVC couplers and tees use a router for the bolt grove, you don't need a perfect oring seal pipe on pipe friction works too
