Nice simple cannon,looks pretty good, You should upgrade the barrel to 3/4" for paintballs and paint the sprinkler valve(its fine to paint it).
Ive found using a quick connect and a ball valve fills the chamber 2x as fast as a schrader.

My bad, I have no idea what SDR looks like as we don't get it over here.
Looks similar to your cannon SB15

Isn't it a bit awkward to pull that blowgun trigger with it facing backwards?
I've used palm facing triggers on other things before and it tends to rock the whole thing a bit on firing.
Neat looking cannon overall.

Looks good for sniping. Small chamber, easy to fill. Long enough to be accurate, short enough to move around. Light weight, powerful. Darts would do well from this cannon. You can search the ammo thread and get some good idea's.

like you said the palm facing tiggers moves the gun. this is true every time i aim it does move off of the target slightly
