Nice kick ass :D gun !!! Really big !


But why the stun gun ?
Looks professional but take a lot of place.


I use a simple piezo and it works 99 %

The stungun provides a bigger and better spark. It's just another way to "upgrade" a combustion launcher.

I've always used the piezo too and I have yet to figure out why people prefer the stungun.

Yeah, you want my comment, I think it's a nice looking gun, but I'm a firm believer of using ABS for combustions and PVC for pneumatics. And big freaking woop it took you a while to build, so did my last one and i didn't get more than 2 pages of comments. If it was a really exceptional gun then it'll get comments on it's own.
Yea, that's definitely going to get you at least a tazer.

I used a stun gun because I wanted an electric ignition so I could use the home made trigger on it that I constructed.

You do no.t have a .8 C:B ration like in you description. A 4"x15" chamber with a 1.5"x60" barrel comes out to about 1.57, way different from what you said. But very nice design though I like the gun alot and looks well build.
