The silencer weighs the barrel down when holding.

looks ok, but I don't think that you need such a long barrel, also, make the barrel from pvc, it would look better, or you could just paint the whole thing, please explain how you can make the input for the cannon where the outpur from the solenoid valve is.

schedule 80 is pvc, its just has thicker walls, but i would agree with kilaa that you could make the barrel short, but it does make it look more like a sniper with a long barrel. You should have a laser sight, and bipod for it. THat would bo awsome, but nice job

You should paint the rest of it

how far does is shoot on average, and does the barrel bend at all when you hold it up because of its length, especialy with the suppressor??

syco, thats not a sprinkler valve, its a QEV, a quick exhaust valve, they work better than sprinkler valves of equal or slightly larger size

my guess is that the user of this cannon has already trashed it, or its up in his attic rotting away, or the hilarious conclusion of him being exploded. also.. please please please stop posting on such old topics... i think there should be a rule, don't post on a topic like this if its older than 5 months. that would help out alot.
