well, unfortunately it was designed as i built it. All I can tell you is what's in the description. 53" tall, chamber and barrel volumes, 1" sprinkler valve....thats just about it. everything else was designed as i went along.

Pretty nice, I especially like how you incorpreated the pistol handle into the overall design. Keep up the good work. 8)

No, there's a chamber under the barrel. It's an over/under design.
