I second that, I will probably make a copper gun eventually, just to have something somewhat close in power but more portable than the hybrid.
Btw, I've been meaning to ask this, what do your parents think of all this?

Very nice gun! Bit of wet and dry or emery cloth on that copper and it'll look great!

Wow, you are lucky, my dad doesnt really care, but at first my mom loved them(a couple years ago and hundreds of guns ago (literaly), but now, as they get more powerful, she HATES them, I havent built one since halloween(i am allowed, just lost interest). But BTW, nice gun!

Wow you're work is improving good job ck. I don't think you need to add a piston valve it should be pretty optimum that qev. Maybe you could minimize pilot volume or I have an idea hook a pop off onto the pilot assembly and string a string up to where you trigger is now if you will be using a consistent pressure. It's 1/4'' on the back there eh?

Yeah it's 1/4. I was thinking of doing that. But do you think it will up performance dramatically.
