Today i went down ace and scouted out potential barrels. I found an almost perfect match, 1/2" SDR 13.5 PVC. It is thin walled but it is NSF-PW and rated at 315 psi.

I'll look into calculating the moles of propane, I hadn't thought of that. I guess need to know the weight of an empty propane tank as well as a full on...

I am considering adding a propane fill to it so i don't have to lug around my air compressor or bike pump, but I'm having trouble calculating whether or not I'd get a decent amount of shots or not because the ideal gas law doe...

Paintball Sniper, Sleek and Powerful

This is my latest creation. It is a fairly simple sniper derived from a conglomeration of various designs on the site. The gun features a typical 1" orbit sprinkler valve (blowgun modded), a poor man's breech, and a 10x optical scope. The chamber is made of 2" pvc which is reduced down to 1" for the...

wow that thing is a-m-a-z-i-n-g you've just inspired me to create a paint ball gun, i love the idea of the two chambers what size are they? is it alright with you if i build one similar to this? also did u use any kind of stopper to prevent air from going into the stock on that tee?
thanx
