The valve you have is capable of 150 psi max.

If it is the same model as mine (orbit watermaster 3/4").
I've consistently brought mine up to 145 psi no problem.


BTW: Good to see a leatherneck around.

Thanks guys... I think I'll try higher pressures now. And ya, it is a cool gun in my perspective, now if it was semi-automatic it would be even cooler 8) . I just made a combustion which I will post soon and I have a story to tell about it. I filled it up with propellant the night I finished it (the combustion one), but it didn't work. So I wake up the next morning, put the barrel about 1 foot away from my eye and push the igniter. It then actually worked and the flame came out and hit my eye (always wear safety goggles) and it singed off my eyelashes and gives me an eye abrasion. Thankfully my uncle is an eye doctor so it should be ok besides the burns on my eye :evil: .

I think a well performing single shot gun is way superior than a multi shot gun....A multi shot gun might be fun and entertaining but I think performance comes first.... :salute:

I agree but multi shot guns are way fun to shoot. Don't have an air compressor though for rapid fire... :(

That is pretty nice, but isn't the back abit to heavy in comparrison to the front half? still it's good. i have seen a few of the same design but with pvc air chamber and copper barrels etc. looks nice though paint it all black :P

Thanks for the comments, but I tend to rest the steel on my shoulder, so it isn't to bad. The gun shoots really nicely and I just just about shoot it all day, sorta :oops: .
