Higher psi's

[jsefcik]

For people with air powered cannons, how are you able to get 300 psi or and higher into your guns?

[Gun Freak]

Fridge compressor, shock pump, homemade pump, depends a lot on chamber size.

Im just a noob, but I got a shock pump. You can get them at amazon for like 20 bucks!! If you get one, do your research and make sure your cannon can handle da pressure!!!!!!!!!!!! 8)

GUn Freak, I saw a little metal gun on here, I'm guessing 3 foot chamber and was 3/4 inch pipe and the dude was able to put in 300 psi. Which is crazy but cool, Im going to build a metal gun once i find out how to get 300 psi.

Just like gun freak said,fridge compressor or homemade pump which can stand more than 30 bar

@ Matty zip, the shock pump looks like a normal bike pump is that what it is?

only for small chambers

Sorry about the questions but does the shock pump just connect to my tire valve and start pumping?

[mattyzip77]

yes, it is really used to pump up shocks on a mountain bike. In our case, a pneumatic cannon! This is probably your easiest and cheapest way out, unless you got a spare fridge kickin around you can rip the compressor out of like gun freak suggested! Good luck, and be cautious when or if you get one of these. and oh yea you'll be pumpin for a few good minutes, depending on chamber size!!!! ANd yes, hook to valve and pump pump pump!!

[Doctore]

yes,just connect it to schrader valve

[jsefcik]

Doctore, thanks, Works best in small chambers?

[Doctore]

well it has small volume,so it will take some time to refill big chamber to big pressure

[jsefcik]

I have just a basic tire pump, Im guessing, I'll just use that =)

[Mr.Tallahassee]

For a some small amount of money you can build a high pressure hand pump similar to a shock pump with two o-rings, four washers, copper pipe, a check valve, and some fittings. I can send a design if necessary.

[jsefcik]

Mr Tallahassee: Please send them !!! But how do i connect it to my gun? Doesn't seem like any of the parts with connect to a tire valve?

Hopefully I can follow directions
