Yes, it's something like that, but not a o-ring. I have used a small piece of bicycle air chamber and a spring push on the screw.

Thank you.
The reason I asked, is because I didn't see a spring on the outside of the vlave. And you said you push the bolt sideways.
I am trying to figure out a good way to make a homemade dump valve that will dump much faster than a blowgun.
I was PM'ed and asked to post some pictures of a piston valve and decribe some of the problems I had with it. I'll work on posting that in a new thread, sometime soon.
I was just hoping maybe this would be a good solution, or maybe get me thinking outside the box and make me think of something else.
Thanks again.
If you can't fix it, you don't own it.

Spring load a 1/4" ball valve, not much friction so you won't need an excessively powerful spring

:blob: This might be, I mean it is the best pneumatic powered gun I've seen so far. You did a great job for this being your first one.

Thanks for your comments
I'm in holidays next week. I think to finish the modification during this time.
The pic in my avatar is extract from a strip cartoon. I scanned it, I clipped the rabbit and add his intimate material
My wife and me had 2 real rabbits (one is dead some years ago), and there is a long story about those rabbits. Our friends often call us the "rabbit family". Me "big rabbit" and my wife "little rabbit". So, I chose this pic because the rabbit has a club full of blood. I'm a bad rabbit
