This is my new over under styl air cannon. it has a 41"*3" air tank and a 37"*2" barrle. I tested it out at 40psi i plan to take it up to 80 today. At 40 psi it did farly well. it shot like 100-150ft over my trees from like 150 ft away. Im hopeing at 80psi it will go like 2 times as far.

I don't see one unrated part...

I actually like this cannon, especially because it uses pressure rated fittings. Most people who build ball valve cannons will just use non-pressure rated ones. A longer barrel would increase power a lot more.

What kind of ball valve is that? looks really weird like you can unscrew it or soemthing. overall nice ball vale cannon.

I got the valve from mcmaster. I think it was cald an econamy pvc valve. (240 max psi) It has a few settings on like u can tighten or loosen the seal. I just left it as it is tho

Ha ha, you just 0wned spudthug

Nice cannon, ball valves also have better flow than sprinklers, but they dont open as fast, but you can spring load them to help them open faster.
