Whats the best paint in australia for pneumatics. I dont want the paint to weaken the cannon.
No one at my local hardware knows. They are just stunned when they find 1. I want to paint PVC and 2. Why I am building cannons/firearms.
Any suggestions. Brands or places to look?

For a start bro these are illegal in Oz.
It's not a good idea to advertise that you make and or use these.
Don't use paint, use contact film ( you know the stuff you covered your books in in grade 5..) You can get wicked effects using different coloured film.
Peace

Would you tell the folks at the local hardware store that you need a jackhammer to rob a bank? Then don't tell them you need the PVC for spudguns, no sense in drawing needless attention to your hobby from people who are often consulted by law enforcement officials when a felony involving something homemade is commited.

Well. You see. I dont have assholes at my local hardware shop. Im down there every week. They want me to bring them down and shoot them off. They also showed me how to build my first. Theres just different sections of Hardware so the paint people dont know me. They dont know I want it for cannons though.
Now please? Back to the question.

I couldn't agree more, jack*. When I went to buy a syringe and needles from a drug store, did I tell them I'm going to inject butane/propane into an illegal weapon? No, I did not. Please try to make up legal uses for whatever you buy. The more underground we spudders are the better.

No one knows?
I like the laws here. Much safer here. Guns are hard to get and I hope it stays like that. I don't want anything to happen like what happens in the states. We've had the same priminister for 12years. People like the laws and its going to stay like that. These cannons are just as dangerous as a firearm.

"Guns are hard to get" ??
Now that just aint true, I know for a fact that if an Australian has $700 in cash that he and or she can purchase a clean, run of the mill 9mm Glock.

P.S. Ammo Extra.. lol
