Very nice job on this gun...really the only "upgrade" lacking is a metered propane system. A gun this nice really begs a proper propane injection. If you don't want to build a full on-board meter and tank, you could go with a simple external meter/injector system. Here's an example I've come up with...it works great, cheap to implement, makes the gun a lot lighter....

Also, your ignition could be improved with a additional spark gap.

Welcome to Spudfiles! Beautiful gun there.

Now that's just annoying.

I vote for the thread to be deleted, the user came back and deleted everything in his first post so there is in fact no cannon to see here
