Well, I'd really need to dye my hair for that these days - My hair is going towards auburn.
I know we've debated this before, and yes, perhaps the pilot volume equivalent of a C-string isn't a good idea
Trust you to lower this to the tone of talking about knickers.
Perhaps in this small chambered case, you have a point about it having a noticeable effect on pumping time - but for a cannon about the size I'd want to work with, the relative size of the pilot volume and chamber size means that a slightly oversize pilot volume will have only a very minor effect on the end results.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

Update: Stock
Also made the chamber much smaller.
Reduced pilot volume for now.
I repaired my fudged blowgun which should be ok up to 200psi which is more than enough for now i am actually limited to 200psi because of this.
not much else
fun to shoot

Sweet! I actually slightly preferred it before but I think it's mainly due to the blowgun. I'm sure when it's a bit more streamlined it will look beaut!

That stock sets it off. Love it!
It's a shame the hose and blowgun arent incorperated into it better. It would have been easy enough to route the blowgun trough the stock itself to make it look more streamlined. Plus JSR would have been impressed by the smaller pilot volume
.
If that stock was hand made then kudos.

I seriously doubt it. It looks like he's taken it off something else. I'd guess it was something quite old at that with that particular design and ageing.
I'd be interested to know what though.
My gripe at this point would be that the barrel and the stock are not in line with one another, with the barrel being higher at the forestock than at the grip end. I take it that this is a side-effect of the barrel mounting, but if I were you, I would be investing further effort in seating it more properly.

Just a small thing, It looks F'ing AMAZING just pointing that out, but you should find a way to lower that barrel support, its putting the whole alignment of the gun off...
Took the liberty of photo shopping it to show the difference, hopefully it can convince you to consider it
