That's beautiful man. That's the kind of project where if you just have to enjoy the fabrication process itself. The shooting is the icing on the cake Nice work!

Exactly

My videos got age restricted

Added a front grip/charging handle (from a drill) this makes it soooo much better. Flip up iron sights, bit of foam on the cheek rest, and took the grip off and filled it with silicone cause it was loose.

Really getting into the Nerf stuff and transformed my airsoft bullpup into a single shot muzzle load pistol by turning the grip and trigger around, barrel is a piece of 1" round nylon that I drilled to take the Nerf dart, these are actually X shot darts which work much better as they have like a rai...

In the house I can shoot about 30' and the dart hardly drops in flight, I need a Chrono really.

A skeet launcher comes to mind This might be worth a look

Got it finished, my homemades chrono shows 140 fps for it and 115 fps for my Ceda S in comparison. To charge and load is two seperate actions but is no problem.

Tried that with a smaller version and there was too much twisting torque on the handle to get a smooth operation, would need some linear bearings like this one.

With some lube this is now shooting at 160fps, full length darts will also fit.

yes, PVC starts to decay as soon as it is made I read, UV is a real killer.

Testing an idea I had for a semiauto tube fed gravity feed and it seems to work, air goes up into the magazine and pushes the balls back up the tube because of a small amount of air bleeding out of the top of the tube, when the pressure builds up enough the front ball pops out like a cork as there i...

With some paint

There is a loading gate which is not a tight fit so it lets out enough air to keep the balls pushed up, it fires really good at 100psi.
