well yes, but most newbies are prompted to read before diving in, knowledge goes a long way in your design. you must agree that this is a very technical hobby, and as far as cash goes well you can get a QEV posted off ebay for less then 15 bucks. your going to spend more then that at the hardware st...

SO i thought id write up a short guide of how I achieved a reliable easy set up for a pneumatic rifle...

gday, haha verry nice, I found another one of you guys, check out Rctankcombat.com/tanks/ i havnt built one of that size, but I did make a 1.2m long abrams M1A2 tank, just finishing the body work. is is a pretty good site, I came here looking to make a paintball gun for my tank ended up getting dist...

its a Co2 regulator for use on a co2 bottle, so it reg's the 3000~ psi down to your chosen pressure. mine-http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/170691170358?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_3321wt_968 similar item http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/AG1-Gen2-Air-Regulator-Paintball-Air-Rifle-Tank-/...

Cosmic Muffin, you want portability speaking from exp. the 12 gram is a waste of time. forget it and go for gold, get hold of a co2 tank eg sodastream ; for bout 40 bucks http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SODASTREAM-C02-60LTR-FULL-CYLINDER-BRAND-NEW-SEALED-SODA-STREAM-/221026749367?pt=AU_SmallKitchenApplia...

ohhh thats insulting :P thought I did well to go outside the box and manufacture a gun with the capability of shooting more then once, without operating a shock pump or compressor to fill the tank. Challenge accepted, I will post a vid of the devastation and finally put up a showcase of my combustio...

Hey, cheers for the link, finding anything in Aus is half the challenge. im afraid im past using plastic pellets, though these will be good for my legal bb gun. Im trying to source 6mm plain steel BB's in the quantity of about 10,000 or so for under 150 Aud or so. Alibaba is good, but I don't want t...

gday, i have as you found that AUS is crap for sourcing parts. try an actual plumbing store as i have done, reece or other big brands and walk into the trade desk ask for parts. extremely helpful and so cheap, fraction of bunnings costs. i built a semi auto QEV CO2 gun here in auz so keep lookin and...

okay so wiped all that, heres the finished gun:
