read the title of the forum index first - "how-to database(NOT FOR HELP-ME POSTS)

and for your question your gonna need to regulate the pressure with a regulator believe it or not.

Are you planning on using it to shoot someone? If so just forget about it.

Now that you wont shoot someone you use a Valve to hold the pressure in.

you use a gauge to tell you how much pressure there is and you use a regulator to limit the flow/pressure and you use a valve to hold the pressure until you want to fire it. dee dee dee

you would be too stupid to use co2 unregulated. I'm going to try a way to use it with pvc un regulate, but im not telling you and theres no piont because you wouldnt understand. you need to purchase a regulator or dont use co2, especially with pvc. use metal for co2. I suggest using a sprinkler valve for the valve on a pb gun.

it's really simple. Attatch a 1/2" schedual 80 pvc pipe to one end of a valve then attach an air chamber to the other end that has a tire valve in it so u can pump it up with a bikepump or an air compressor.

Here is a link of a really simple cannon that is very similiar to what you want:

unless youve got a regulator it wont look like a conventional pb gun.
