The "Victory" is my first copper QEV rifle. It is breech loading (credit goes to hotwired for this) and it is capable of 200 psi. The Parker QEV is a diaphram one as you will see in the pictures below. There is also a safety made from a ball valve near the trigger. It shot good with some carrots I used for ammo, but I am not really sure how fast they went. I reckon they went pretty darn fast.
Specs:
barrel length: 28"
barrel pipe size: 1/2" copper
chamber length: 20"
chamber pipe size: 3/4" copper
valve: 1/2" Parker QEV
pilot valve: modified husky blowgun
safety: ball valve "

Sweet gun! I would suggest mounting the blowgun in a way so that it's like a real trigger, but other than that, it's pretty bADasS!

I tried mounting the blowgun like a real trigger, but it was uncomfortable to hold.

Yes, it's a check valve.
Did you bore out the tees to get the barrel and chamber through them?

if it's one that looks like this, do what I did, and cut the hook thingy off the back. it's much better.origin unknown wrote:I tried mounting the blowgun like a real trigger, but it was uncomfortable to hold.
yeah, just cut the hook/hand guard thing off the back.
oh, and unscrew the tip from the bottom
