This is my paintball gun with a backpack grenade launcher clamped on. In these pics the blowgun trigger isn't clamped onto the front handle, but it is now. The barrel is 1.5" and the chamber is too. The chamber is a square of 1.5" with a T, bushing, and nipple to the 3/4" sprinkler. There is a 3/4" hose going to the barrel. I have cardboard tubes that fit perfectly in 1.5" and can actually hold 5 psi. You can stack up 24 paintballs in them and have room for paper towels at the top to keep them from rolling out. I 'm going to paint it some kind of woodsy color, maybe 2 or 3 color camo. I just can't get it to shoot because air comes out the barrel. I've tried all I know but the diaphragm still won't seal I'm thinking about running a hose to the top of the valve so it automatically seals as soon as I put air in. Anyway, here's the pics

Aahh, thats cool, I love it. :D A bit messy but it will look cool once it is cleaned up. You should put a tank on your back as the air source and use a homemade remote line to link it. You have given me an idea to use when I get my paintball gun :P
Forever dreaming...

It's just 4 1.5" elbows in a square except the top side is a T with a bushing.

I don't know, do I?
I don't think it will because I can run and crouch with it on. Can't do dives though :D
