It should work, give it a spray then wipe it with a tissue.

It's still going to be shotgun based but I'm going to use what Law and BtB have used before, the ball valve trigger with the curled grip. I hate copying but I just love the look of it plus knowing me, I'll give it my own special touches anyway. All in all, I still reckon this will be a great looking gun and have the power to match it.

One more thing, would spray cooking oil do the trick to stop the sticking? I don't see why it shouldn't work.

All the best.
If your piston is 1/2, why not pilot with a blowgun? i would be real comfy and wouldnt jostle the gun when fired.

It depends, at 300 psi blowgun triggers tend to be significantly more difficult to press.

Especially if you cut the lever down so your finger's practically on top of the button...

Still, as long as you're not planning on being in a quick fire contest :wink:

I've modded my blowgun pretty heavily. I made a whole new pin for it. It allowed so much flow it wasn't funny. I left it out in the rain by accident one day and the pin got really rusty so now the blowgun leaks at 140 or so psi. I'll make another pin for it, but I'd much rather use the ball valve.. Just a bit safer.
