looks alright but i would have put a tee in instead of the 90degree elbow and fixed the stock into that, the stock would then give you more chamber volume aswell oh and i would also have mounted the blowgun inside the two elbows.... and make sure you get those damage pics up

thats definetly a nice gun. that hose connecting the blow gun to the sprinkler valve is it pressure rated ? im only asking that as it looks a quite thick and doesn't appear to have those strand of metal or plastic in it to strengthen it. the last thing you want is your gun piloting when you don't want to.

its only dead space if its not part of the tank... or if its not part of the tank and its not blocked off.

i mean like if the stock is the tank too it slows down the air flow?

can somebody tell the C:B ratio of my gun has cuase iono how to

its really hard to tell the C:B ratio just by looking at it but the way i tell my C:B ratio is just pour water into the chamber until it is full and measure it then do the same to the barrel. then just simplify or divide or such till it is in simple forms. Example:Chamber=10.9 cups, Barell=9.8 Cups or 10.9:9.8 then just simplify to get your ratio. Hope this helps.
Great cannon too i like the handle.

I haven't really tested it, but the ones I've built...well, I think this statement is just a little over-rated.
As far as the C:B, it is definitely less than a 1:1 but it is hard to tell as of now. What is the size / length of the chamber and the size / length of the barrel?

there both 1inch but the chamber is like 1 inch longer

wait less then 1:1 is bad? and btw the recoil of this thing is MASSIVE

1:1 on a pneumatic is not bad. It was just my prediction (seeing as how the chamber was shorter than the barrel).
As far as the power of a pneumatic, that all depends on the kind of pressure, type of air flow, etc. It is less effected by C:B.
As far as your launcher, it looks good and that was a pretty nifty way of adding the stock.
Oh, how long is the chamber and barrel?

Great looking gun, I also like the play-doh ammo idea.

barrel is 30 inches, the chamber is 39 inchs if u add the bends and everthing else behind the valve not the stock tho
