Is it safe to bore out a PVC male adaptor with a dremel? I'm building a semi auto marble barrel for my pneumatic. I need to be able to bore out a 1/2" Sch. 40 male adaptor to fit a marble through. I usually run my gun at 80-100 psi, so would boring it out significantly affect its pressure rating?

No, you can deffinatly do thats as it is only the barrel, and even then only the magazine.
If your getting chased off a police dog, try not to run through a tunnel then onto a small see-saw then through a ring of fire. They are trained for that!
