Shoot a paint ball at someone with that and they better be wearing a bullet proof jacket! Sweet design. How did you weld brass to steel? I wonder if anybody ever used old propain bottles for chambers?

I would like to thank the following people :P :

Schmanman - for his genious bullet cap cover
Burgar Engineering dude - for welding it together
JB-Weld - for bloody awesome epoxy
Chris at hammerhardware - for supplying me with shiny spraypaint and brass fittings.

*Outro Music Plays*Hey! Stop playing the music im not finished
:evil:

My grandad - for support and interest
and the members of SpudFiles - for introducing me to this hobby :wink:

Ok now I've got that sh*t out of the way
Oh and Jrrdw I don't plan on shooting anyone, anywhere at anytime.... :wink:

man that sounded like the dude from the show Fear Factor

I decided to scrap the saftey ball valve and I stuck a 1/4" ball valve on the blow gun instead. When I opened the safety ball valve it didnt release air fast enough to close the solenoid and ended up dribbling a paintball out the barrel.

And people ask if a sprinkler valve is really all that much better…

So what rate of twist are you using to stabilize those sinkers, or the paintball? Or is it not really a rifle?

oh and your welcome.

I know, I know. But ive done experiements on spudtech with names and descriptions of guns and found that having the word 'Rifle' and any other words the describe the gun that arnt found on all guns like 'breechloader' get more views and comments then guns with names like 'Dam Buster' etc. Technically its not a rifle but in my heart it is :wink: joking
