well, this is my first bbmg , threw it together out of things i had laying around im my basement. hope you like it. i am only charging the air chamber to 55 psi because the glue isn't dry yet and is not rated for pressure(conduit glue)

this is the result of 2 .5 second bursts, the gun will only actually shoot for about 1 second before i have to pump up the air chamber again, operating @55psi

Whatever title you choose, try not to start a religion again.

Nice cloud. I may get around to making a portable one like that, seeing as I don't have an air compressor. Does putting a hose on it change preformance? It looks kinda flimsy with just a blowgun between them.

Nice, I like that you've gone with the compact "over-under" layout instead of the more bulky "inline" configuration most people seem to choose. Might I suggest a bit of support between the BB chamber and the air chamber, looks a bit fragile as it is.

I dont think you can change it unless you get another 1200 bucks. :P
A mod can change it back, though. I noticed SB15 got his changed from "Mr. ABS" to the default after his abs gun blew up:)

Lol that explains a few things. Now I like this but that needs a support underneath the cloud chamber its starting to look like it could break.

im with simo im pretty sure there is a little leak because there is no support the blowgun is holding the the airchamber and the bb chamber so the gun must have a leak.
u should but cable ties at the end of the airchamber connecting to the bb chamber wich will give support the the blowgun
