nicely made! I am ganna make one of these as well. Instead of the popoff valve I am ganna use the valve that I used on my barrel hammer guns. Like this you can pump it up via the valve and initiate the shot.

technically you could use this as a cartridge for a gun and have a magazine with about 3-5 of these around the 6mm- 8mm bore with 1/2" chamber and use some sort of hammer to pilot a schrader at the back?? hmm now thats a good idea, im designing one now

That was the idea behind this project, in fact the cartridge I had made looks a lot like spudchucker's creation.

If you have anywhere near normal intellagence you should be able to figure that out with no effort at all. That is assuming you know how a piston valve works and have seen theinternals of a well made coax before.

Well Today I was pumping up the gun and I heard a loud pop and all of the air came out of the gun I tried again but all the air kept coming out. After a while I thought that hey, maybe all of the air is coming out because the air pressure whent behind the faom disk and bursted a hole in the sealling face I got out my dremel and drilled out the back epoxy plug. Sure enough the sealling face had a pin hole in it sort of the way a aluminum burst disk looks like with the four triangle hing like things.
Sorry no pictures of that because after it happened I got right to work and trashed the old piston. Now I am going to put the gun back together I also got some good pics.

New piston. See that little piece of cork there in the middle of the sealing face and the piston body I find that if you make a slight boo boo with the barrel being a little off center or if the piston is out of alighnment than this fixes the problem. my barrel was about 2mm out of alighnment.

no, Left is Hugo Chaves, of Venezuela, center, you are right is Fidel, and right is Evo Morales of Bolivia. The whole Evolución thing is a little pun that they had all over Bolivia when I went there, in support of Evo.
