this is my third attempt at a pison gun. it will fire a cup full of dirt through a fence board but that is all the testing that ive done so far. I literally just fired it like two minutes ago. pistons rock!!!

Man, that is pretty awesome. I tried making a piston like that but it leaked too much. Does yours leak at all?

Nice, now just hack off the end of that bolt to make it just that little bit lighter and more efficient

Did you just spin the piston around on the drill press? What is the made of?
Cut some holes at the end of the barrel so it looks like a muzzle break.
Verry nice

Considering the muzzle is inside the chamber, I don't think that would be the brightest of ideas

Nor would cutting holes in the outside tube which is the chamber

Very nice. Good job :thumbup:. One question though, did you say it can shoot DIRT through wood. Or rather is it the cup full of dirt going through wood. Regardless, the gun sounds beastly.

it will shoot a cup full of dirt through plywood
and to answer keepitreal's question it is a three inch cap that i drilled a hole of in the center an the used a grinder to remove a little plasic while the drill press was moving

hehe nice gun..who fires dirt out of there gun other than this guy..its a first...i here by pronounce u to have found the ghettoist of ammos...
anyway yea my first piston leaked out the barrel a bit to so when i went to shoot water out of it i had a sabot that was perfect in the barrel it was a peice of foam i rammed in there..all of the sudden it started building pressure in the barrel because it was blocking all air and then as i was pouring the water down the barrel the foam peice shot out at me...now it didnt hurt because it was foam but it scared the shat out of me because it was loud as hell...
^^^ dont read if u dont like randomness...
