Just letting you guys know, i'm back now, my bag was searched by American customs and they left a nice little note saying so, nothing was taken, it's all there and I had no more problems at NZ customs.

You should post a couple pics of your plunder sometime.

Good lord man, that's a lot of stuff, lol. You know, this makes me want to build a better cannon. I've got me a new job that's paying nearly twice as much a month as my old one, I think I may be able to afford it now.

Yeah, well i'm putting 2 of the valves to port 2 seperate piston valve guns I have, and using the other 2 for a basic paint ball launcher and a basic golf ball launcher. Back to basics :P

The QEV is on a full metal gun I put together today but needs tweaking.

Ok, so I didn't ask the MacDonalds question directly... But I will now. In your opinion, was the macdonalds servings big here? Sheesh.

Ok, so how much money did you spend on that again?

EDIT: NVM, I saw that you said 220ish.

Ah, I see that you took my advice with the teflon tape!! (Or where you just going to buy some anyway?)
