For all of you who haven't ever seen a gun from me. I was randomly looking through my computer, and found some pictures of my paintball gun.

(I don't have a camera, that's why my hybrid or golf ball/paddle interupter aren't up..)

But, enjoy. :)

56k stop here.

Big picture of the modded sprinkler:
2256x1504

Big close-up of the barrel stop to keep paintballs from rolling into the valve:
2256x1504


(Don't worry jack, I removed the hose on the blowgun since the pictures were taken. I appeased the efficiency Gods :lol: )

(Yes, there's DWV on it, but it never sees past 35-40 psi for backyard can shooting anyways.)

Thank you, it's quite an old cannon. :) But still a fun plinker.

3/4" CPVC barrel and 3"x2"x1" chamber. :roll: :lol:

I've taken DWV to 60 for backyard shooting...


Nice, salt likes little plinkers. They remind him of his home planet.

Bump. :lol:

Edit: Good job on being an asshole. Editing the original post wouldn't bump it to the top. If I'm mistaken, oh well, I learned something. You could have ignored the thread like everyone else, but you just had to post didn't you?

If a mod sees this, can you just clean up all the posts here aside from the two actual comments, and my helpful response to one.

Edit 2: Oh hey, it doesn't bump the thread up when I edit. I was right.
