yes it is I had to mod it abit though, it came from Repco or Auto one in WA, I had cut the end off of it and put a quick release connector on it and so I could use it someware other than the car I had to make a box up with a cigy lighter port and a 240-12V 15amp power lead and switch on it it works good though when I go bush I just pluf it into the lighter sock fills it in less than 30secs, IT gets abit hot though thats the only prob.

sorry mate but my barrel assembly is different. My triger is put ware it can be more practical and this guy shoots 23 mm nangs out of his he has no copper in his barrel and my barrel is 12 mm and shoots .44 slugs and shoots further I looked at alot of guns before I done mine and the best method was used for all my stuff, allot of pnuman guns look the same but shorly they are all different.
The other thing is mine will drop a rabbit a 100 yard no prob if you watch his video he might get 2o yards out of it and barely punchs a box with it,
So answer you your questions.
If you looked at my gun closer you would see that mine is very much different and I didn't copy his idea I looked at hundreds of gun before mine and mine is a one off design.

Nice gun! But can you help me how do you put the trigger on the stock and not have air leak out? doesn't the air from the chamber flow into the stock and leak out where you cut for the trigger?
anyway keep up the good work

you just block off the chamber with a end cap that will fit backwards then you just glue your stock assembly to that
to fit trigger in the stock you need to mod the blowgun by cutting the bouton off it under the triger release and I just used quicksteel to keep it in place, that part does come though I left one loose join there just encase I had to pull trigger out later.
