ok, I'm brainstorming, and need some ideas.

my bb rifle is pretty much like it was originally, but with a better, lighter piston I just made recently.

It is ready for some improvements, and any ideas are welcome. it no longer has a stock, and the scope is not on it.

drill out the barrel so the sleeve will also serve as a silencer, unless you've already done that :)

What?? timber or steel?? DUDE?
Only one awnser to that question!!
You gots to make your self up a wooden stock mate!
They look so much smarter and theres nothing like the feel of it. metal is so damn cold and boring. timber has charicter!!!! plus a few coats of varnish and a nice timber polish and you got a real eye catcher!
Ok just my 50 c.
Mate go with what you like and feel comfortable with!
Don't know all that much about pnematics but the chamber looks fine. what type of pressure dose it hold?
I'm sure by the end you'll have a real smart looking gun mate. looked pritty good to start with hey!

i reckon you should adapt it for semi auto and run it off co2 8) you could use a pop-off as a pilot and go from there?
