EDIT button, top right corner of your post. ^>

Awesome gun. Very realistic looking. Great paint job.

What are the barrel and chamber dimmensions? I assume they are inside a 3 inch sleeve, or if not how does your piston work inline?

Maybe I am just missing something. Coaxial maybe?

The barrel is 3/4" aluminum inside a 3" pvc pipe. The chamber is 3" pvc 14" long. The piston is spring loaded so you can load ammo first without charging, Very dangerous to charge first. I uses 110 LBS of air. The air release is in the gun handle.

That thing only has a 3/4" barrel :shock:

So the barrel runs coaxially through a big empty 3" sleeve? Does it have different barrels?

I expected something like a 2 inch barrel or 2 1/2.

How did you make the neat shoulder rest? It looks like a piece of 4 or 6 inch pipe. How is it attached? It is a great idea and really adds to the gun.

very nice, i like the shoulder rest , and the authentic look i also thought it would have a 2 inch barrel although it's still sweet looking, well done.

Dont be aiming that at cops, lol like you really would, SUSPECT IS ARMED AND DANGEROUS, PROCEED WITH CAUTION. Lol that would be funny as hell, then they realize its not dangerous, after they shoot you. lol. Nice cannon though
