Hmm... an change for getting anew gauge? :P
Other than that, i think it looks pretty nice. No way you need a scope, but I do have to admit that it looks pretty nice on there.

Keep up the good work.

Looks like you're going on some tactical paintball operation.

Looks neat, do I see a hole cut in the top for breach loading?

dont realy understand what you said "Hmm... an change for getting anew gauge?" were you talking about the gauge?

The gauge: free got like 4 sitting in the cupboard's.
The scope: dont really want it but looks kool want open sights when my hand gets better
Breech: not yet as i said before i cant do that until my hand is better.
u2 cool as, i reckon ill make the camo sheath detachable but for now the gun looks unfinished with the tape and all so i think ill keep it on for now.

--Update just had a few shots with it and the piston is still a little sticky and ive also found that i cant really pump it up from the chamber, help on this would be nice,but i think its because it has to be filled from behind the piston but im also unsure because i have a spring??? anyways its bloody accurate with the scope at 30m just waitin on my damn hand to get better and finish the thing.

Peace
peace chaos :twisted:

Well, thats a pretty sweet gun. my parents wotn let me make anything that shoots hard projectiles, i can only shoot spuds. when im 18, im defiently making a marble sniper. i have a design for one, and yours is about the closest to mine i have seen on this site, exept mine is made out of schd80 PVC and operates at 500 PSI..... still, sweet cannon....... hope your hand gets better........ that must suck. a sweet-ass gun and you cant even have fun with it.....

VH_man, I don't know how well that PVC will hold up under 500 psi, use metal.

MCmaster said that 1inch Schd80 was rated for over 1000 PSI...... thats what i would use as a chamber. i was going for realism. i have all the parts in an MCmaster order, ready to buy when i have the money..... all the parts are AT LEAST rated to 1000 PSI. its expesnive, but, it should be REALLY powerful.

Do the sights work well? Either mine are buggered or my gun really is shooting 1cm/3m off to the right ....which I can't believe.

Have you gone off the camo jacket idea then?

Nice looking unit. I am currently working on the same, although i think i may be using a cabloe-drive spring latch for firing the air valve and i also have a small on board 150PSI air compressor. It will most likely be posted within the next month or two, so keep your eyes peeled...

-Keep up the good work.
