Stealth Sniper
Pneumatic
Chamber Size 1.5"x20" (~30 CI)
Barrel Size .696"x30" (~21 CI)
Bike Pump
Modified 1" Sprinkler with Safety Ball Valve
Functional Suppressor, Chamber diagonal to the barrel
I believe this sucker is my best looking gun so far. The barrel is exactly 1 yard with the suppressor attached. The paintjob is pretty cool, black with red accents. The trigger has a ball valve safety on it. I might make a bi-pod for it, because it will look cooler and the suppressor weighs about 4 times as much as the whole barrel and it makes the barrel bend down. The stock is plugged with a piece of 3/16" thick rubber with sealant around it. Anyway,

Very nice!! I like the stock and how the chambers to the side of the barrel. Its quite an original design and the paint looks good.

cool
One question: why not use a piston valve over a sprinkler valve?

is it really worth it on a sniper?and sprinklers are easier to use on snipers as you dont need a hose and stuff to bring the trigger in front of you where a piston is behind you.and he has a stock.i cant believe i didnt see this till now,nice gun noname

Piston valve = higher FPS though.

Yeh congrats on the nice cannon i like how the chamber is off set to the side.I had the same problem with my sniper,the barrel bending so i got a piece of 1inch pipe and had it go 3/4 the length of the barrel it worked a charm and all i did was pack the barrel out with some tape to make the 1inch pipe fit.Give it a go and let me see if it works well.

yeah im just saying that on a sniper a piston is more difficult and limits your design and can get in the way if you have a stock,a piston kicks a sprinklers arse anyday

Wow that's a lot of replys.
Rmich-I used a sprinkler because I had it lying around.
Benny-It helps some, takes out probably 3/4 of the sound.
Killagorilla-It's kind of hard to see paintballs going around 500 fps, wouldn't you say?
rna-duelers-I would, but that wouldn't do much for the aesthetics. I'm just going to make a folding bipod out of aluminum.
The chamber was set to the side because it was more compact. I don't know it you can see, but there is actually a 3/4" T connecting the chamber to the stock and gun.

Yes, you did just rhyme, and after firing it, I too, agree with you; it is the shizz (I rhymed too YAY).

No It Doesent! If you make a barrel sealing valve in a tee you can make a design like this:
