Just a simple blowgun pistol, it shoots 6mm bbs and nails wrapped in tape. I use it at 140-200 psi. [youtube][/youtube]

Not bad. Did your pump really get that high that fast? Or was that clip sped up?

It is speed up, but it doesnt take too long in real speed either.

That link just goes to Lowes.com. I haven't been able to find pistol grip blowguns at Lowes or the Depot, but I think Harbor Freight has them, if you have one around you. Or you can buy it online...

And this one says you can only buy it in the store. I like it better.

Harbor freight is a good store for finding out if you like a certain type of tool or not. Buy it cheap, let it break, then go buy a higher quality version when you find that you miss it.

Pistol looks good. What band is that playing in your video?
(I would have gone with Burzum's "Dunkelheit" as a soundtrack)
