How about a multi barreled gun that has a single chamber and valve with a big manifold to attach barrels to?

How about an actual decent looking sniper rifle? With a real wooden stock and etc?

well can you make it look like an M14 with the chamber on your gun being analogous to the gas piston on the M14?

idk maybe..the problem is getting a stock...

i was tihnking maybe a 1 inch piston going down to a double 1 inch chamber and porting with a 1/4 inch bv and making it stationary..but thats been done alot and my comp gun is like that....hehe it will be posted tomorrow or friday it is effing loud, powerful, enourmous, shoots a frigging 50 gram slug at 500+fps and a 10 gram marble at 1054 fps...and thats at 100 psi...wait till i get my 250 psi pump :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

A double chamber makes it bulky. how about a longer chamber slightly larger? Keep it sniper looking.

Have fun!
BTW
I have access to bunch of copper pipe and fiitng and I want to build a Sniper with it. What does your barrel sealing piston look like? If you dont mind sharing a pic or description would be nice.

Thanks

ull see it on my comp gun..well the outside.. inside is a teflon machined piston fitting almost perfectly with 2 equilization grooves that are 1/32" and 2 sheets of neoprene bolted to the front and the back with a grinded put bushing so the barrel slides halfway through
