I shot it with a small screw, about 3mm diamiter head, wrapped in lots of electrical tape to make it fit 15mm.

Dose any one think there is anything wrong with this design? Most of the parts are from http://www.airlines-pneumatics.co.uk

i also like yours,

accuracy is good but not amazing as you have to pulldown the ball valve, when i make the above design this weekend it will be even more powerful and alot alto more accurate,
distance wise it goes about 150metres with potato but because its small it get caught by the wind and dosnt go that far, when i shoot screws or baterys it fires easily 200metres but people have said my new diaphragm valve will make an absolutly huge difference. :twisted:
