I'm actually planning something like this, I am trying to find the absolute maximum range of an airsoft bb. After that I will probably make a mutishot rifle powered by c02 powerlets for actual skirmish use.

I'm interested in seeing how the performance on this will be, Just a tip from experience in my fully upgraded bar-10, If you are going to be using .43 gram bb's, I would reccomend some goldenball .43 gram bbs they next to digicon .43's are the best .43's out there.

I have some madbull .43 g bbs with their madbull 6.03 barrel.

Are their bb's ok?

Now i have to try to make the trigger mechanism work... its gonna be a P.I.T.A as i have very poor metal cutting tools ... but i will get it done.

I plan (when i would be major) To actually make a real high power rifle charged by a high pressure hand pump (3000 psi) and shoot .50 or .45 to get some real range (800 m maybe?) then register it to be fully legal ...
Pretty much like sandman.

UPDATE

pfuu...

Here is an update of where i am in my project, it goes pretty well aside from the fact that i lack of proper tools, the part that looks like a split in two cylinder took me 2 hours ... with an hacksaw and then grinded a few millimeters ...

This is just the "frame" (the trigger is not done yet nor the valve rod, but it is not that long to make)

Just to show that i am actually engaged in this and not thinking of an other canon again (its kinda hard to)

Blaa....

Note the bunch of tools lying on the ground and on the table ( actually, only half of the tools are shown, all my grandp'as and the dremel + toolboxes are under the table ...)

wow nice work... keep us updated

You know for lack of better tools, that is some exceptional work!! However, I think those are all the tools you need for this hobby.

Getting serious huh!

Looking good!\Remember you can use fine sandpaper to make all the parts look industrial...or even polish them..

Getting serious huh!

I dunno why, but i really appreciate that comment as its from you

Lil'update

Added the trigger mount, whats left is to make the piston and the trigger mechansim and the seal on chamber side ...
The main reason there is so much working lately is that i got banned until 10 pm on my ogame account ... lol ...

Only whats missing is some taps and a lovely 12 inch drill press/milling machine if i get to have space and money(only for mill)

That must have taken a lot of work!

I hope you can afford a mill soon.

That must have taken a lot of work!

Much less then you at this time but probably a good 8-10 hours but i work pretty slowly ( i oscillate between computer and the workshop )

Just so people can put a name on what i am doing, here is what i hope to make it look like :

I still have time to buy a mill ( i am still 14 years old and i dont mind needing to move some heavy equipement when i will go in my own house) So it will wait .

14 years old..

My hat's off to you my young friend!

Wow a 14 year old with that much patience and workshop knowledge! When i was 14, i was an un-co little spastic who used to make crossbows from trees and string.... lol you got me reminiscing...

on a side note... what are you doing playing ogame!! jokes

14 years old..

Well 15 in a few weeks

Actually, its kinda fun

Its not that i want to brag ... but i have also built 2 robots and other small projects in electronics before i got to have spudgunning frenzy (i really cant quit spudgunning/airgun, its like an addiction )



The reason to all this might be that i dont have a very big social life

NEW PICS

Tadaaaa!
I now need to make the trigger

( I wont hide to you that i actually runned like James bond with the "pistol" to get to the computer 8) )

Acually, if i placed a 3 way valve on the trigger and a 12g co2 cartidge in the handle, i could had got a nice semi automatic pistol !

But i will stick to the carbine design ...

NOOOOOOIIIIIICCCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm loving it that you're obviously taking this project seriously! Good luck, and I'll be looking out for more updates!

Badass

Watch where you point that thing!!
Pnushnikov might be firing back at you!!


It's looking good indeed!
