At both Home Depot and Lowes, they are in the compressor accessories section. Husky at Home Depot, kobalt and Lowes. Blowgun is the specific name.

No. They won't. You need a large volume of air. You can use something like a CO2 setup or propane tank if it needs to be portable.

Other advice: Take your time and learn. Stick around awhile. If you rush into a project you don't understand, you will fail.

ALL YOU NEED IS1 PEICE OF PVC, 2 ENDCAPS, A BIKE VALVE, HOSE BARB, AND SOME PRESSURE TUBING.

being little more than an air flow you throw BBs into.
That is the best way to explain bbmg's I have ever seen...


anyway...The above is not entirely true, since I have just made a bbmg work on a 12 gram CO2 bulb, but that would be unwise to try and copy.

You'll basically hurt, mame or kill yourself..


Just read up in the bb section.You;ll get it eventually.
