Hey spudfiles

I recently built this QEV cannon and have been playing around with it, this is the first one i have built. I like the gun and have been shooting aaa batteries out of it anything else that fits down the barrel. I only have one problem or disappointment with the gun, i want to be able to get multiple shots out of it but not sure on the best way how to or the easiest way to do it? :(

Looks nice for a first.
Although you can do with a barrel support to make it less likely to break/bend if dropped.
As for semi-auto, like Jack said, slide valves or 3-way valves are the way to go, goodluck :)

The gun is heaps of fun and theres heaps of ways to do it but as i have said i would like to have multi shot because having to reload after every shot is a pain but good luck with it:)
