ok, this gun is diffrent from any other on the site. the main frame is a modified cocking gun. i removed the rod from inside, and that is my stock. i have a soda bottle chamber, ball valve threaded into cap(dont know the size), and a 2 ft long 1/2 inch type M copper barrel, and my own trigger setup. the trigger is the cocking guns trigger, i attached some thin rope to the trigger(hot glue), then glued a ring to the bottle, threaded the rope through the ring, then glued the other end of the rope to the ball valve handle. it weighs about 6-7 lbs. the recoil is really great too, at 80 psi, it will knock me on my @ss. it is about 4 foot 10 inches long. my ammo is a steel slug with a plastic bag tail(flies over 250 meters). it will rip through 1 inch wooden board(not mpywood, 10 times stronger), and can go through over 10 soda cans.

Nice gun. By the way, the correct spelling is "Caulking Gun", and you may desire to change the name to "The Caulk". :wink:

looks pretty creative, and cheap too, it's amazing what you can make with little to no money and some scrap parts. oh and that were tose feet at the end, did you record over some other video?
