You images are very small. From what I see it looks very nice, what kind of stock is that?

*Very nice, maybe you could shorten the handle of that ball valve, to make it look better. How's the preformance of this cannon?

By what i can see it looks awesome, but the pictures are soooooo small. Is there any chance of getting bigger ones? It looks great though from what i can see. Hav you got a bipod?

EDIT: WOW that looks soooo good, I love realistic looking spudguns and thats an awesome one. What did u get the stock from?

Sorry there was a stuff up, the shut down computer button was pressed 2 times when i was setting this up, stupid kids ><

Edit : *Reply to urban ninja* I shaped it out of wood a couple years ago with a plane and belt sander, i currently adapted it to suit this pneumatic rifle (soz bout the small pics b4, it was a stuff up and i gave the links which linked to the thumbnail thingys, soz, do you like the new large pictures btw) Its not a spud gun, it's primary ammo is marbles, lol

Edit Edit : Soz stupid me, so tired, double post

Edit Edit Edit : *Reply to Demon* Yeah the handle needs to be shorten, but it would affect the performance, which is 660 fps, it's pretty darn quick

The ammo lives in the sky. Get it?

Nice gun. The ball valve spring trigger probably helps performance a heap.

It looks nice but It doesn't look like you can hold it like a normal rifle ( anymore)
How is the ballvalve released?

*Torch reply* No the spring doesnt pinch
and yes it does hold like a real rifle
*Brian the Brain reply* Spring, which is connected to a string which is connected to a release mechanism
