VH-man, the pin on the valve moves back a little when firing, yes.

I just now ran upon this; I might make make one, and chamber it for 6mm BBs. I will give it a very tiny air chamber, and I already have the QEV. It will look like a submachine gun too. The feeding mech will probably be alot different than yours, utilizing an Airsoft mag from my broken pistol.

I know this sounds wierd but the pistol I'm am almost finished with is the exactsame thing you described... I made a paddle interrupter for the fedding mechanism, and I sleeve a 10" airsoft barrel in a 1/4" pipe nipple. The only thing I have yet to get is a pop off valve...

Well...

This gun can't go to 200 PSI, because there's a 90 PSI pop-off valve on it. :wink: Not only that, but I reconfigured it. The reconfigured gun would shoot well over 100 yards at 100 PSI.

you should get a 300 PSI pop-valve, pressure rated parts, and hook it up to an un-regulated CO2 canister. THAT would be powerful. most likely the most powerful gun on this site.......... :shock:

This project begs to be revived as a golfball cannon....
Or 1"marbles like I used for the sawed-off..
Still, I can't get QEV's in holland.
I have however found 15 bar safetyvalves.

They do have QEVs in Holland. Fastenal sells QEVs and they are really cheap. They do shipments to your house and in-store pickups depending on how close you are. Heres the link to a 3/4" QEV http://www.fastenal.com/web/products/de ... ku=0443031 They have other QEVs listed under "Exhaust Valves". Go to the "Locations" button at the top of the page to find which of the two stores in Holland you want to buy from. Not to mention their QEVs are dirt cheap.

Also gonna need to find a lower pressure activating popoff because all of the ones ive seen locally activate at higher pressures of 125PSI.
on the popoff i have which looks just like the one hes using.. i can unscrew the top and it will raise or lower the pressure at which it pops off.
