it's for the looking of the gun, i dont like a full stock of wood.

yes i use a ball valve, and i fill it with a biker pump as you can see in the video

my first project, as you can see the solder part is bad, but that was my first try, and it's working

thanks anyway for the people who helped me answer my questions for building my first gun, respect!

same here, GT= eggbom8

i used metal parts because it fit's by my wooden gun i've made (that's my work, make wooden stuff)

but first i must paint it or something, then i make a video and pictures.

ok thanks guys for helping!

i have now one that works, now it's just to fix everything and make the gun 'beautifull'
it's not shooting that hard what i've seen here but it works

if it's done i'll post it here of course.

It all depends on your barrel volume...if the volume of your barrel is less than that of your camber, it leads to reduced efficiency...ideally, you want about a 1:1 C:B ratio. Just out of curiosity, why does it have to be made out of metal? PVC is much less expensive, and quite a bit easier to work...

but one question, if i have a 'chamber' that is 30mm x 300mm long, is that possible to shoot something?

thanks anyway

ok thanks but i really need one from metal, and no i cant solder.
but is there no other way without solder to make one with a valve for a bike pump?

i mean a pump with a cable on it, or a bike pump.
doesnt matter, here is a good example:

i dont know it's working but if it's working then i dont know how to build the valve on it,
