After the gator l1 i decided to make a new more better looking one, so here its is tight bore acrylic barrel chamber 1.5, new barrel shroud aluminum barrel housing, and ghost ring sight, it now fires 60-70rps ranging from 350-410 fps at 120 psi using my 10 gallon air compressor.

You can tell how awesome a cannon is by the pressure used.

That's nice man! You gave it a very realistic look with the stacked barrel, is that essentially an over-under or is it a coax? (Seeing the o-ring ion the threading n the back).

Looks great. You really did a great job with the materials it's constructed from. I am usualy more interested in a bullpup configuration for that type gun so that surprised me.
Looks very ergonomical with the shoulder stock and sight set-up. I take it your shoulder stock is removable too?
To answer Blitz this looks like a full-auto since the post reads RPS(rounds per second). Lucky to have a ten gallon compressor.
I am kind of assuming it fires BB's? Looks like a lot of fun to shoot.
A lot better than the one's I used to pay money to shoot at the carnivals.

To load i just unscrew the stock, thats why theres an o-ring to prevent leaks since Teflon tape wears out alot when you threaded and unthread constanly.
Yes a shoots 12g bbs and thanks :) Im working on another one that looks the the ultimate inline and or I might incorporate one into an air soft rifle.

You're not kidding. Teflon tape wears out after only a few removals and then you'd have to replace it. It took me a while for me to realize that O-rings would make it work so better.
