Its powered by a bycicle pump, and it can fire waterballoons without breaking them using a sabot.

Can someone help me with a design to fit an electric trigger into it??? Using some sort of sprinkler valve??
It all NEEDS to fit into a 3 inch pipe when its completed


Im a newb when it comes down to using sprinkler valves... so some help would be great. The only thing i dont want is it to disform the looks of it at all.

See were the valve is on top??? I want to exchange that valve with a type of a push button deal.

IT CANNOT USE ANYTHING BUT AIR ALSO! no gas, no flames. Just compressed air.


:shock: :D help would be greatly apprciated.

thanxs guys

I'm kindof doubting that a sprinkler valve can fit, centered in a 3" pipe. (I'm assumming that this is basicaly a normal launcher stuck in tube) However, *cough* I havn't acctualy taken a measurment of a 1" sprinkler before, and I don't have one to measure currently.
If a sprinkler doesn't fit centered, you could do something like this:
(chamber)-._(valve_,-----------
...The valve has angles on the end of it, esentialy offsetting it, so it can sit lower in the 3" tube. These angles would each be made of 2 45* (or 22*) elbows.

:D yes, thats how it works, very simple. I really dont kno enough about the sprinkler valves to get one to fit in there. If i did, i would have already had one in there. Since i wanted to do the flip a trigger and fire type of deal.

If guys could help, ill make another?

if you pneumatically mod the solenoid it MAY fit, but if it does it will be just barely.

I love the gun. Did you use a 2" chamber? What size is the barrel?

A sprinkler valve cant fit in a 3" pipe.. I built an at4 replica, and what i did was use a 3" chamber with a 2" barel, and fit it in a 4" boady.. It turned out realy well,,, Check it out. its called "AT4"

im in the middle of creating a desgin that allows anyone of just about any size to carry huge guns by hand (just need to visit some stores one more time to collect some final parts, then gluing can begin).
i mean HUGE guns. carrying 9 footers with ease.
