AA's fit in 1/2" pipe I do believe.

Anyways, nice gun! My first pneumatic, (and crappy one), had a 3/4" modded sprinkler valve, but it was a Lawn Genie. My second one is finished, I'm just polishing it off and testing it.

If you can't get the batteries to fit... give Tootsie rolls a try! $0.01 a shot!

Everyone says AAs fit in 1/2" but the fit sucks. If your barrel is removalbe, make ane that's 1/2" SDR 13.5. That gun should be able to blast them pretty hard.

Lol, *agrees with Gort*. Im wondering if this gun is cursed..every bike pump I forkin use on it breaks! I've broke 5 pumps on it and didnt even go past 60 PSI, and they were rated to 120psi! Any suggestions for a cheap yet good bike pump? :evil:

Great gun and great idea using a fishing bobber for a stopper, would have never thought of that. Thanks.
