This really shouldn't be in bb/airsoft/paintball, should it? I would think more like pneumatic or something?

this is a pneumatic

@ Boomer and surfbum,It shoots paintballs and was designed specifically for paintball.PCGuy didn't have a problem with it.

I know folks told me that I should put a sight on.Well, I did. So here is the Goat Gun with new sight rail.I found the rail in some old parts that came with my phantom.I drilled the barrel and screwed the sight rail down.

nice as i like the sight. how accurate is it at say 30m?

edit: oh and can we please get some vids of this thing in action... pwease pwease pweas???

goathunter · Tue May 01, 2007 8:18 pm

Yep, I'll get vids tommorrow.It's a little dark out now.My problem is that the camera may not pick up the football.I'll get vid of me filling and firing from my paintball setup.
The sight is horribly innacurate as i haven't sighted it in yet(batteries are dead,have to find replacements)

I doubt if it will compensate for anything over 30m(75 ft?) The football begins to seriously lob at that range.

Boomer_ · Tue May 01, 2007 9:28 pm

I wasn't questioning, I was just saying, it didn't cross my mind that it was built for paintballs when I saw that nerf football. That's pretty sweet. Good job on that, especially the break barrel breech loading.

goathunter · Tue May 01, 2007 9:32 pm

Yeah,I used footballs since they are easy to see in the pics.I shoot more paintballs out of it than footballs.You only get a shot or 2 at a tank an hour,So that leaves a lot of time to make use of the shotshells.After I wrote I thought I may have responded like I was scolding you and surfbum.Sorry if i did, it was not my intention.

All righty, a little late but I now have a video of me firing and filling with my paintball setup.

Goat,
Awesome cannon. Do you by any chance have a set of plans for it? I would like to make one for paintball use, but I'm not that great of a designer. If plans are available, please let me know. I would need a spec sheet and material list as well. Many thanks.

Thta is a really really nice gun, love the loading system on it. Great job.

goathunter · Sun May 06, 2007 8:13 pm

Sorry Briar, I winged this gun.It's not that hard to figure out(KISS principle in action).The only thing worth noting is the female adapter were the stock screws in. The connector pipe(in between the adapter and T) is filled with JB weld to stop the stock from filling with air. That and the action is made out of 1/4" marine plywood.See if you can figure it out from the pics ,anything else just ask.

this is a great design, i especially love the break breech you use. very original. Looks like a great gun to use in the game!

goathunter · Tue May 08, 2007 12:46 pm

Well I thought it was original until I found out Brian the Brain had though up the same thing.Oh well I built mine on a spudgun first

And it is great to use on the field.I Played with it this last weekend.Worked well,although I only used it for base defense.The shotgun loads are great. Nothing like a 1' spread(24 rd.) at 75' to make the competition wet themselves.
