I'm would guess somewhere between $150 and 200. I'll guess $178 to try to win the 1000 internets. :D


The winner gets 1000 internets!

where are you all from, because i have heard that prices differ by location, and what makes it so expensive, (besides of course the valves)
P.S. I want my 100th post to be a good cannon, so i will reply here
I know, but do you think some of the three inch fittings will add up

BLOWGUN VALVE
1 ½” BALL VALVE (OR 1”)

Damn! I wasted my 100th post...

I don't think the actual pipe should cost much, but all those small parts really add up in the end. I'm going to hazard a guess at $153.57.

I'z just pullin' that number out for the internetz...

*Edit* I don't know how much they cost in Texas, but in Illinois they cost enough for me to not build a gun with 3 inch fittings. I can't recall a specific price, but they probably will make up a large chunk of the cost.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

Please make that obvious before telling anyone they can't buy anything over 1.5" in pressure rated PVC because I know for a fact you can and i'm pretty sure you know the stock differs from store to store.

I'm going for $123
