I'm thinking about making a small pistol (12 gram) powered. 1/2 in dia chamber, 1/4 dia barrel. I would attach the co2 with a adapter. Tell me what you think about it. any ideas for valves welcome.

Try using one of those 12 gram powered CO2 bike pumps or CO2 air dusters. They have built in valves and you can attach a barrel strait on to the CO2 duster or bike pump without the need for a chamber. Do not use unregulated CO2 if you build your gun with a chamber unless you knewit could hold up to the extremely high pressures it would undergo.

as long as you use steel then you should be fine using CO2, the maximum pressure that itll be at after dumping into a tank is around 700 psi
in the upcoming presidential election, there will be several candidates who will be running, one of whom is Hillary Clinton. Now WAIT A SECOND!!! I though there was some sort of rule that prevented someone from serving more than two terms in office. Vote Against Hillary: Presidential Elections 08
