Well hello once again..
I know I've been bouncing around quite a few different gun ideas for my next gun..But I've decided to build a gun based on the Vogt pattern..
But first I think I have a little problem..
The piping on my old gun for my chamber..I am not sure if it is pressure rated or not!!!!!! (I painted over it..) Even though it's held up to many shots at 60 psi..I am still going to replace all of my piping...
EDIT: I found some left over..and it says DWV Sch 40..is that safe?? There's no pressure rating..
So I am going to be buying some new piping..Which is pretty good news..even if it costs me extra..And I just want to make sure that this should be okay..Even though it says it is rated to 130 psi..I just want to double check..Just being cautious..It's on www.mcmaster.com..part number 49035K31..
Also..I would be buying other sizes of piping... 2" and 1.5" and 1"..So just want to make sure that this schedule 40 is right...
