Well like the title says, this is my first BBMG. It is an inline style with an acrylic block, bought from noname. It has a 3 foot Barrel, made from 1/4" steel brakeline, for shooting .177cal BB's. As well as a 1 foot chamber. I tested it this weekend and went through 12,000, yes 12,000, BB's. I am quite impressed with its performance, as I am getting about a 2' spread at 25' and I managed to get some damage shots on the oh so original soda can. I have a bunch of old useless CD's laying around so I will shoot at those as soon as I get some more BB's. Paint is next on the list along with a barrel cover made from 1/2" pipe. Well I'm sure you are ready for the pics so here they are!!

I'll get to shoot it earlier :lol:


Nice pictures, I can see everything in them. But it's pretty sweet, and we needa go shoot stuff when you don't have work.

nice for a first. what is on the connecting piece from the brakeline to the pvc? epoxy? i thought 1/4 was to big for .177 calibe bbs. and what size chamber do you have?

1/4" brakeline fits them really nicely actually, and the connection is a disk of 1.5 pvc rod turntd down on my 'lathe'(drill) to fit in the 1.25 pipe then I epoxied the disk to the pipe and the barrel into the disk.

I was waiting for this, and then actually thinking about asking when you were going to post it, but it's here, and it's great! I'm glad the block got there this time. :lol:

thanks guys!!

@noname- im really, really happy about the performance of this block, you got me hooked on BBMG's now im making a replica of boomers MV870 from the contest, and it should be done in a few weeks, before the Texas meet is the plan.

@spud yeti- yeah the simplicity is what im hoping saves me from further questioning about it if the cops ever drop by a shoot day.

Again thanks for all the positive comments!
