I thought I would make this out of spare parts to try my new fill system along with you new piston, It seems to work well. Id compare the power to a higher power airsoft rifle at 200psi.

I have a plan to make a 'grease gun" style piston gun from the spare parts I got so keep an eye out! :D

Nice, but it's a shame that your pilot volume is probably equal to your actual firing chamber volume...

Cheers for the comments lads. Jsr, I know it's huge :(. I might take off the gun style blowgun and take the fitting tee, stick it straight on the back and use a normal blow gun. This should all make the pilot alot smaller.

But ehhhh, this blowgun and filler is to be used on my next gun thats got a pretty beefy chamber on it so I might just persist for now :D.

I'm surprised that even so it's got a huuuge pilot, it works well still :?

Very nice. i like how it looks, it probably feels good too, seeing as how the trigger is in the center of the gun. Is there a topic explaing the construction of your pump you have there ?8)

Thanks alot matey. At 200psi, It rips through cans at a good range so I'm pretty happy with it, but I'm still going to rip it apart soon to use on the next gun :P This little thing was just to test the new pump and fill system.
