So from front to back here are the parts. barrel (three foot), ball valve, 2 foot pvc (chamber), end cap, fill valve. this can also be used as a basic combustion, just leave the valve open.

note- if turned into a combustion it can no longer be used as a pneumatic.
also, be suree to use pvc glue and primer and let it dry for at least 12 hours.
I don't know what your talking about 2" ball valves are expensive
