You can see how I built the stock http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1176&. The gun is copper piping and coated in a satin black paint. Sorry for the poor quality Its hard to get a detailed picture of it. It is fairley loud and packs a hell of a lot of recoil. I need to put something on the end of the stock like some sponge to stop it hurting! It fires AAA batteries with a piece of potato before as crappy wadding. Toilet paper messes up the extender.

That's freaking awsome, airgun style! :P
Definitive a gangsta :wink: with that 22mm chamber, do you have any idea about muzzle power?

modifide gun stock, good thinking, is the chamber in the stock? they make recoil cushions to fit just about any size stock, get them at any gun shop/walmart, could find one about anywhere, googlee can hook you up with a website to get one, cool

Did you machine the extender yourself? Looks pretty nice.

Nice Gun!
I must ask though, whats up with taking a pic with your shirt off? I mean a potato gun forum is the last place your going to pic up a chick.

Drac I think the "extender" is just PVC connected to a reducer. Clarification on the issue? Looks super sleek though.

I actually made a stock out of a 2x6 (might post pics later today) and made a little barrel to sit on top. Then used a anchor bolt for the bolt mechanism, but in real life it doesnt shoot (only in my immagination, JK).

As for the problem with clear pics what I do to get clear pics is set my camera on "no flash", put on a stand (so no movement), then set a delay for the camera (so your not touching the camera when it takes the picture).

Well I'll be! That would have to be some pretty small pvc though.

I cleaned up your picture, but can't do anything about the shirt thing.

Yeah Drac said

I made everything from scratch, Its basically a reducer with a piece of copper piping. Then I measured out where to drill to holes and gave it a coat of paint. The chamber is not in the stock yet that is a really good idea, it would give it a hell load of power! I dont have the equiptment to measure the muzzle power but can fire batteries through a coffee can at about 15 feet away. I cant use it to much as we live in a villa over looking sydney harbour so people can see me on our balcony waving it around. To fire it I need to take it in the car with my parents and drive out a while.

Yeah actually I have greatly modified this gun, the chamber if you do want to build one like this is a piece of 22mm pipng to a 15mm for the barrel. It had a brass compression fitting endcap. The size of the chamber was too small to create any real damage, so I got a little bottle thing and have put a bipod on sight etc. To jalord159 If you want to see the trigger setup go to http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1176&. It shows you all the technical bits of the stock. Now I have modified it I am not allowed to shoot it, It is too powerfull and way way too loud for a villa. My dad gets really pi#*?d off by it.

Looks like you are more interested in the good look then the preformance.What's the size of the chamber?If you think that is ok you my use an oxgen for it. :D :D

Yeah I would but where do you buy cans of oxygen. I tried using a mix of propane, air and nos. It worked well once I got the mix which took like ten minutes of fiddling. The performance now that Ive changed it is incredible for what it is. And the looks are still there.
