Ok guys its been a quite a while Ie been researching, designing and polishing n Now its finished. Think Im callin it the : PR1 Regal... i dunno yet still thinkng about it

Well its a
75 caliber
Single shot, sprinkler valve (3/4 ")
14 inch pull length,
bolt action ( not 100% finished yet...needs the bolt)
1.25x12" copper chamber pneumatic rifle
shooting at (according to software) 450fps with marbles as ammo

The body is made of wood( not sure what kind) & hot glue( lol yeh ... needed something to fil in the gaps with).The barrel is made of pvc and chrome rod ( to give it some shine :D ) Right now it shoots wax ... it can shoot marbles but the barrel isnt a perfect fit. None the less pretty good performace so far....Anyway enough chat here are the pics tell me what you think

nice work for your first pneumatic, is that breech loading i see?

again very nice work and good job on doing the research, thanks for not asking stupid questions like some other people do (the lazy ones) and waisting topic space.
