all the stuff to the valve is changed! the watervalve is a ballvalve just a little different and it has a smaller ball (the size of a male quick connect) so why use a bigger? the small grey "wheel" is the trigger.

and the 42 mm thing means that the piston valve is 42mm i am going to change on it a bit if you say so.

but please come with something i can shoot at you can also say what to use as ammo! just want you to see what you want if you understand 8)

I was referring to the title which I originally thought meant the barrel (as conventional) but spudfarm meant the piston valve.

Anyway :)

The ripped apart cans look very impressive btw. Nothing like something almost turned from can back to sheet again to demonstrate power.

galfisk has his firs pneumatic on this forum someplace but its by pcguy he was also a good member on spudtech!

and rna i`ll shoot a orange and banana tomorrow :wink: more sugestions?

BTW! can someone run the pneumatic on the ggdt? if you need more information to do it ask! i arent too familiar with ggdt :) run it at 150psi of air then 270! and to get a possible uppgrade try to doubble the chamber size and give me results! to be exact the 1/2" barrel is 79" long and the 1" about 38"

THANKS

How many guns does Galfisk actually have posted on this site or another? His copper marble gun was what first inspired me. I'm looking to make a gun very similar to his (but with my own touch ;)) over the next few months.

Great looking gun by the way, Spudfarm.
