Im with him. The bipod seems a bit forward and is bending the barrel. Moving it back will also make it look more like the M82/107 (Im guessing thats what you were going for cause thats what Kaneda wanted).

if you put it a little back, like a foot, you have can widen the horizontal aiming angle.

Oh yeah, when I first tested the gun before my pump broke I pressed the trigger and most of the air went out of the blowgun and what little air did go out through the other valve was very weak. Is something wrong. I only tested it to 30 psi. Maybe if I pump it up to 120 psi it will work right?

I have the exact same problem with one of my cannons, is it something we've done wrong? - and I definately don't have my sprinkler valve round the wrong way.

:D I love the style of your gun. Looks like you barrel has a swag in it in one of the pics, you may need to sleeve it to hit your mark. :twisted: Other than that I think it should work fine. You may want a better quality blow gun though. Nice job. :lol:

I was wrong, recent studies proved that the barrel was bent. I fixed it by removing the 1/2" barrel and putting in a 3/4" barrel, and I moved the bipod down a ways also. I got a toy devil spear thing at Walmart because the stick was the perfect size for those marbles you get in the dollar section in the toy isle at WalMart. I then added som caulk to the end of the barrel to keep the ammo from rolling out. I tried to put a scope on it but.........so horribly inaccurate. But I did manage to put some iron sights on it. I replaced the blowgun. The gun needs a new paintjob but I'm out of paint. It starts leaking at around 60 psi so I'll have to go get some epoxy and fix that.

You are arming the inbred pig people and you are a traitor to humanity!!

Very nice sniper. Looks tough.
I notice that the barrel is a little bit bendy or crooked. Maybe you could sleeve or stiffen that up for increased accuracy.

If your chamber is venting out through the air gun, that means that the gun isn't releasing enough pressure fast enough. Make sure you don't have anything screwed into the nozzle. You might have to mod it.

The airgun vents a sprinkler valve, so it is modded.

If that gun were mine I would use a burst disk.

And Why exactly? That kind of ruins the whole point of it being a sniper, considering you'd have no idea when it's going to fire.
