Air Compressor

I want to buy a actual air compressor for use with my pneumatic cannon's. I wanted to know what tools I would need to hook it up to a bike valve, and what tool I need for quick disconnects, I also need recomendations on a specific air compressor. I dont want to pay any more then 500$.

Okay, lets say I drop the psi down to 400-600 would that be good, what can I expect from that? I want to have fun, but I would rather not go over 150$ on this one, I can make the stock my self, and would rather not make anything else but the rifled barrel after I figure out that it works, should I c...

Is this about right?

Well, i've finally decided on a Pneumatic Cannon, I know it wont be the most accurate of the bunch, I also know I could probably do better with a production air rifle. But i've decided on this. I want to use a system similar to the one on this rifle. http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/m25-sniper-potato...

Just one question I cant seem to find the answer to, how many shots can you get per fill? Is it like a pcp or do you only get 1 shot each time?

I have two of them, a Crosman Pumpmaster 760 and a Remington Airmaster 77. To top that off, I am not buying a commercial air rifle. I do not want one, I want to build a large caliber, high power, PCP air rifle. I really do not care about being told not to, I want suggestions on how too.

I bought a fairly decent PCA air rifle for under 100$ (202PLN) for me and most of the members it would be virtually impossible get the same accuracy, power and compactness/ergonomics/aesthetics etc. with a homemade gun as a commercial airgun has... not to mention that it would be far more expensive...

Allright, im looking at building something like this http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/25mm-sn ... 10615.html but having it shoot .177 cal pellets. I want to keep the budget under 100$ for this project. Does anybody think this is possible, I can upgrade to .22 pellets if it would be better.

3/8"? Just out of curiousity, is their anyway to get one of these to accurately fire a 30-06 Bullet accurately out to 70 yards(The bullet, not the shell/gunpowder etc.), That would be hella fun compared to some weak .177 rifle lol.

Well, I want as much accuracy and range as possible, generally the higher the power the better, and im looking at Compressed Air as the main power source, semi automatic would be great, but im willing to compromise at single shot. Also, compactness is not an issue. I will fill it with a scuba tank, ...
