High powered pirate pistol

Cannon name: The Pirate

built by Brian the Brain

Caliber: .45 smoothbore
Type: Pneumatic ( coaxial)
Pressure used: 26 bar ( yes that is accurate)
Valve: Floating tapered diaphram ( no backflow)
Materials used: steel and brass
Ammo: Whatever fits in there, ball bearings, airsoft buckshot...


I couldn't keep this one to myself anymore, since I wouldn't be around during competition time..

I set out to make a high performance pirat style pistol...this is what I came up with.

The inlet valve is homebuilt, it leaks ever so slightly.I fixed it with a closed of femal quick disconnect, wich closes it off.The escaping pressure from the male QD fixes it in place, so it can't be turned.
The trigger guard is superglued to the female QD.

With the plug in place there are NO leaks.

This thing is louder than my sawed-off, thanks to the ultra quick valve, the high pressure and off course because of the short barrel..
It is extremely powerfull for it's size.It turns bottles into clouds of glass..

Oh and did I mention I polished it...in stead of flat black...IT"S SHINY!!!

One last "No Nonsense Gun" before I go
Any questions or remarks?? Feel free to leave a post..

Too bad i had to use compression fittings at the muzzle.Solder fittings would look so sweet, but since I use steel pipe I can't solder it.

I might file off the hex though, once I'm confident I won't heve to fix anything inside.
THis thing takes about 8 pumps to get to 26 bar.
It's the most fun gun I ever built!!!
