im sure he would have thought of that already anyways, but it is a good idea nevertheless.

the extra bottles were just an "CHEAP" idea btw, we don't all have money to burn, plus he couldn't use it above 150 with a coke bottle chamber, i would see no point in co2 for this gun.

that bike tire valve is called a schrader valve. it can be purchesed at a bike shop. may cannons use them.

Old threads may be kicked up, if you have something relevant and timely to say. Useless ("Cool!") or untimely ("you can find X here" as a reply to a two-month old thread such as "I need to find X by tomorrow") replies may be deleted.

please read the rules, kicking up a old topic to say cool is looked down upon.

Cool gun man... Kinda reminds me of the Antique gun posted here by JSR not long ago, with the way the tank is mounted
Don't shoot me, it was a random cannon :D It also has the potential to get the creative juices flowing for the new year!
