I dismantled my detent gun some time ago, and my pressure washer handle has been gathering som dust recently, so I decided I'd use some spare parts to try some constant air source projects with it (i.e. full auto, semi auto, valveless, etc...) so I mocked up the base for many projects to come

I've hooked it up to a little BBMG and I've been very satisfied with the results, but hopefully there'll be more to come

Of course! I'm probably going to try to rig up a pulsed air system for the BBMG so pressure can build up more. If not I'll try to hook up a detent for more power

Reminds me of what I did with this one, didn't see much use as I started fiddling with hybrids shortly after, ah well.

I love the inline configuration, let's see that HPA BBMG working ;)
