vary nice i like the look and cleener lines it looks allot better then other designs i have seen

another feature i like is this seams vary ergonomic which most of the cannons i have seen arn't

i am assuming it is a muzzel loader?

one sugestion is a better valve but this sets the standard for thse allitle higher

can't wait till i see what you build next

You guys are right, there was a mistake with the velocity of this marble gun. I am working on fixing it.

Important quick question: how accurate is it? and do you use a method to keep it accurate?

It certainly is a very nice gun. Very realistic, I like that. I'd be careful with it though, don't what anyone mistaking it for a real rifle. :D
Also, like benny said, I'd be careful using hat kind of PSI, it's kind of pushing it. Furthermore, It has a very...interesting trigger system. I've never seen anything like it before.

It can shoot within a circle with a 18cm diametre from about 20 metres away. The determining factor that gives it that accuracy is the long barrel,the scope and how i wrap the wadding around the marble.

This is a very very nice looking rifle, so many props for that. You also did a good job setting up the trigger for the ball valve, and some nice paint too! But not a big fan of ball valves though.
