alright its all done, and yes the 2 hoses are held together with tape.. LOTS OF TAPE...... one hose was wrapped in teflon tape and fitted into the other for about 2 inches. then it was teflon taped all over, duct taped, teflon taped again, and electrical tape.. and it doesnt leak at 80 psi

... to lull the enemy into a false sense of security?

:D

Or perhaps to keep within the vegetable scope of "spud"guns...turns out carrots might not be as good for your eyes as the hype would lead one to believe hehe

Ha-ha-ha :D
That carrot just made my day :P .
I built a cardboard p90 using the guts of a nerf rapid-fire 20. Got about 200 fps. If I had figured out that a longer barrel would get 350 or so and I knew the basic blow-forward mechanism to get semi-auto back then I never would have taken it apart and ultimately broken it.
Word of advice asian: Never take something apart for parts if it works well. Chances are you'll regret it.

Just realized something: You are using a water bottle as the air tank.
That's a really bad idea. Try a soda bottle, they are made to hold pressure cause of the CO2.

it is true that that is a water bottle, but it is VERY strong, surprisingly...

just like propel and Gatorade bottles, they're almost indestructible

well, i lost the cap yesterday =p. i shot it off into the distance.... and it had the valve on it...... lol

so, im gonna make another tank with a 3 liter soda bottle. and i still have plenty of valves.

but yea, thanks for pointing that out, i was wondering how much more it could take..
