Ok, well let me know if I can get one from some where like Lowes or Home Depot. Also, I have a friend who has a broken paintball gun, should I try and salvage the trigger system for the qev from the paintball gun? Or just build my own?

If I can buy QEV's where would I find them? Other wise I know how to make piston valves, but I kinda don't want to unless I have to.

Ok thanks. I am open to all sorts of ideas and suggestions, and when I get some spare time and money I will definitely get to work. If anyone can, will you link me to a coaxial tutorial? Or is that simply a QEV? (I am pretty new to pneumatic guns.... I have made only 1 valveless gun, and its pretty ...

I just got an idea, tell me your thoughts. There's a local gun store close to my house, and they have wooden scraps of old rifles, should I get one of those, hollow out the stock for a air tank, and add in my own barrel and trigger? Would that even work?

Ok. I really need to decide whether I should use steel or pvc. I am thinking pvc because its a bit easyier to work with, but steel has more fitting options, plus you can unscrew barrels :P If you have any suggestions on what to use as a first time let me know.

Wow, 1,000 psi? Thats a bit much wouldent you say? I will start out with pvc and a sprinkler valve I guess, and then work my way into metal.

What are optimum parts for QEV's?

I would like to know what would be the best to use, pvc, brass, or steel? I would also like to know if I could get some easy to make schematics rather than a video. Thanks.

That's awesome. But, the problem with it is, we don't know the full specifics of it, so we could run into problems of; where to add triggers, where the inlet and outlet is (those are easy finds), and places for barrels and mounting. Other wise, nice find! :)

First time cannon builder.

I am a first time cannon builder, with only 1 cannon made. So I guess you could call me a novice. But now to the point. Can someone please teach or upload pictures on how I could create a QEV and a assembly for a 6mm BB? I would really like to get a airsoft gun, but I would prefer to build it my sel...
