I'm going to have to call shenanigans on that unless we get some hard proof. I don't seem to be able to accept that someone who appears to be unable to fix a broken 'Shift' key could afford a scuba compressor, you're gonna have to give some proof.
The fact that you referred to solder as 'solderin iron' also kinda gave it away.

As above, usually in 1 metre lengths and not too expensive. If not you can find them online if you look hard enough.
Blah I bough two tubes a few weeks ago. Freaking 10 euro's per piece.not too expensive

Too bad for me, I finally go to albany and the hobby store has no telescoping tube left! Not ordering online due to absurd postage prices.
I agree, doubting the scuba compressor thing. Very expensive, high quality equipment that does not usually break. And if it did I'd be more annoyed than "my compressor worth a couple grand broke 15 mins ago lol"

He could've spent more time on the painting though.
The barrel also seems awfully short, not *that* lethal.

Enough to kill you at point blank range though, these things are usually used while pressed against the intended victim, exacerbating the injury with the propelling gases themselves.psycix wrote:He could've spent more time on the painting though.

I know, these things have been around for longer than I haveEven though your ideas are great jsr, that is whats known as a zipgun.
One of the reasons I haven't made a business out of my creations, too much liability.Anyways I hope that doesnt happen to me as i have sold a few penguns from time to time

I could very easily make one for less than $10 in terms of materials and negligible manufacturing time, and I'm sure people would be willing to pay $20 or more. The problem for selling it aside from the liability is there's the additional cost of the filling system.TwitchTheAussie wrote:I dunno JSR the liabilities wouldnt outweigh the money sometimes.

I still cannont achieve proper functionning of mine... Pumped it to 400 psi, but even your method for a piston (cutting if from a gasket) didn't work.
Edit : It does work, but....what a poor performance!!!! it isn't even loud!! XD

At least 50 bucks. Why? Because of the responsibility that comes with it.jackssmirkingrevenge wrote:I could very easily make one for less than $10 in terms of materials and negligible manufacturing time, and I'm sure people would be willing to pay $20 or more.

Don't sell (pneumatic) weapons to people who don't know anything about it. If it goes wrong, the trace leads back to you.
A high price means that people won't just buy it as a toy, but have to be really interested in the subject. (OR they are planning to do harm with it and need it for bad purposes)
